    <title>HISTORY</title>
    <para>This program has long history. Author of
    <command>traceroute</command> is Van Jacobson and it first
    appeared in 1988. This clone is based on a port of
    <command>traceroute</command> to IPv6 published in NRL IPv6
    distribution in 1996. In turn, it was ported to Linux by Pedro
    Roque. After this it was kept in sync by Alexey Kuznetsov
    &lt;kuznet@ms2.inr.ac.ru&gt;. And eventually entered
    <emphasis remap="B">iputils</emphasis> package.</para>
