Etan Reisner

Etan started working on pidgin in 2002 because the gaimosd plugin didn't do as much as he wanted it to. The plugin needed pidgin to give it access to more functions so a patch was required. He works on various parts of pidgin, most recently the perl plugin, the xmpp prpl, and random other plugin related stuff.
