From Niels original docs:
lsh is written by Niels Möller, and distributed under the terms and conditions of the GNU General Public License (see the file COPYING for details). Several parts of lsh, in particular tcpforwarding, public-key user authentication, and the lsh_proxy program, were contributed by Balázs Scheidler.

Many other people have written free code which is used in lsh.
Gotta thank the guys at Blu Cigs reviews for their help with one major problem with the software.
