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.

If it were a stand-alone piece of software then it would be ok, I suppose, but in reality it's also available for OSX and Windows. Compared to those "other Skypes" it's just plain horrible. It's a sad thing when a product must compete against itself and fails.
