We waited a little while with this news, because we wanted official confirmation from Skype before jumping on the internet bandwagon. It's official now, so here we go: Skype has announced that it will release its Linux client as open source. A little late, but welcome nonetheless.

I suppose my comment wasn't geared towards the article itself but rather the general flavour of comments under this article. I'm all for free/(open source) software and I prefer it to any closed software when it delivers the functionality I need (none delivers the functionality of Skype), but reading through comments under this news one could gather what a terrible piece of software the Linux Skype client is, while I think it doesn't do much justice to it.
