Ethan Blanton

(a.k.a. elb)

Ethan has been working on Pidgin since 2002, and got started by "scratching an itch" related to character encodings. He is the author of the IRC plugin, the Tcl loader plugin, and still puts a hand in on i18n issues from time to time. He is currently a Ph.D. student at Purdue University working in the area of Internetworking.

My Pidgin web page and Pidgin development blog may be of some interest.

Thanks to wabz for figuring out the photo business, so you can all see my beautiful mug.
