+	developers, our steadfast supporters, the crazy patch writers, and
+	everyone else who has made this transition to Pidgin possible, and
+	the improvements that go along with it.  I'd like to extend a
+	special thanks to Sean, for leading us through the legal issues
+	and taking care of all of the paperwork and overhead that no one
+	wants to deal with.
