I think I read somewhere sometime ago that Skype had made their text-based chat protocol open (maybe in response to the announcement of Google Talk), but since then I haven't heard anything about it. Quite a couple of my non-FLOSS friends use Skype, so I'd be interested in integrated text-based Skype chat in bitlbee or somehow otherwise.
Anybody know about this?

I can join in in the praising of bitlbee. The fact that they run public servers that you can use for free is also very nice. Makes it very easy to get going.

Actually there's a very nice plugin that adds Skype support via the official Skype API. See
