I don't think so. What I heard is that the guy behind it wanted to contribute it, but actually, Google at the same time he was in the AV1 development discussions with them, they tried to patent his idea for themselves behind his back (like, wtf?!). I'm not sure if he even succeeded at preventing that, but if the snafu kept ANS out, it was not the inventor's fault.
