Looks good.

I'd rather have a more generic the_author_im($type) function since there are so many IM flavors out there. I'll close this as wontfix. Let's open a new ticket against 2.4 for the_author_im().

Hi, I've just come across this problem (there are workarounds, obviously, but it's not ideal).

I can't see any ticket for a the_author_im($type) (which would be ideal). Did the idea get dropped? If so, could we go with a quick the_author_jabber() function?

Milestone → 2.7.1

Seeing as there's no traction on a new generic the_author_im() function, I'd like to recommend the_author_jabber() for 2.7.1. There's currently no function available for retrieving the value stored under "Jabber / Google Talk" in a user's profile.

I'll refresh the patch in a moment.
