Stories Swirling About Skype's Source (Linux Journal)

A Linux-compatible open-source Skype VOIP client is in the works, according to this article on Linux Journal. "Some have questioned why the move should be of particular import, given the variety of Linux-compatible VOIP options already available. The most obvious is, fittingly enough, the news itself: Skype will have an Open Source client. Regardless of the market, number of users, or general usefulness, any time the makers of a proprietary product choose to embrace Open Source, that in itself is an important event. Adding allies to our community is as important as adding products to our systems."
