Same as below, feel free to drop both names or leave Hemanth as
author. I don't want to end with a collection of names, which is
usually complicating from the legal POV (e.g. in case of relicense).

>From the practical point of view, it makes no difference (since I
don't think someone will relicense it from LGPL -> ?), from the
philosophical point of view authorship and copyright are somehow
controversial in a free software project (but the Lockean theory of
land property still suits free software customs well [1]), also
authorship != copyright so it doesn't necessarily depend on the number
of lines of code but is more related to the original idea/design (but
again, there is no way to get a mathematical distinction between the
two).
