Some time ago I've read (at least I _think_ I read it) that
someone reverse-engineered the Skype protocol, so there maybe
is the chance that a free Skype alternative, being compatible
with Skype, will be created.

Anyway, getting rid of Skype is in my opinion mandatory to
maintain freedom in _many_ ways, as it is obvious that MICROS~1
will be integrating its functionality into upcoming "Windows"
and then surely will exclude anyone _else_ from participating.
They have a long tradition doing such things...

However, being able to use a cross-platform SIP capable client
for IP telephony and video conferencing that is compatible with
the majority of systems out there would be great, on _any_ free
operating system (not "just Linux").
