It's still early, but still, nobody has answered my question as to
whether Skype will be using my Asterisk server's CPU and bandwidth to
bridge calls between anonymous third parties (i.e. two people not
involved in my call plan in any way, just using my Asterisk server as a
bridge for their lame, NATted connectivity) they way they do with their
client.

Y'all do realize with Skype that they bridge calls between two parties
using a third, anonymous, (donor) party, when the two parties cannot
connect to each other because their NAT and/or firewalls are too
restrictive to allow them to connect directly, right?
