This proposal shows how BigTIFF was invented:

   http://www.simplesystems.org/libtiff/BigTIFFProposal.html

the BigTIFF format extension is described in more detail at

   http://www.awaresystems.be/imaging/tiff/bigtiff.html

As pertains to libtiff, Joris Van Damme did most of the work 
pertaining to adding BigTIFF support.  If there is an owner of the 
specification, it would be Joris Van Damme.
