Hello,

Fireogg is developed by the author of ffmpeg2theora, who may be
reached at [ j (at) v2v.cc ].  He's a long-time contributor to the
free software world and -- obviously -- someone of trust, but as you
may notice by the v2v website, not someone with time to fill in detail
in web sites that the average user would reckon as important such as
contact information.

You or anyone else can, of course, check the plugin's source to see
what it does.
