Don't forget bzip3.
Encode.su discussion on bzip3 [1] was quite interesting to me back then. Tl;dr, she combined some unpopular ideas into one package but those ideas themselves were well known in the data compression folks themselves, so that was hardly novel to them. Nor those ideas were independently reimplemented or optimized.
