NRV (Not Really Vanished)
From Just Solve the File Format Problem
NRV (Not Really Vanished) is a data compression library, and associated demonstration software. It was developed by Markus Oberhumer, as a possible successor to LZO. It apparently had a file format associated with it.
Despite its name, it has really vanished from the internet. The later archives of the NRV website suggest it was abandoned in favor of LZO Professional[1].
