[Asterisk-Dev] A crazy idea... Skype channel in Asterisk

[Michael Giagnocavo]

Sounds rather interesting! 

But, aren't there some legal issues around doing this kind of thing? I
remember a few months ago going over this, but it looked like it could be a
problem if a company tried to really use it (say, by competing with SkypeOut
service to terminate to the PSTN).

I'd sure be interested in it though. Although the CPU hit would probably not
be that nice, it'll be cool to have encrypted calls...

Subject: [Asterisk-Dev] A crazy idea... Skype channel in Asterisk

Dear Developers:

I found skype and take a few moments to think in create a channel 
capable to talk the skype protocol. The purpose of this is crate a point 
if contact with the millions of skype users. For example, if we create a 
skype username called "mycompany" (for example) and when any skype user 
call to "mycompany", asterisk take control of the call, atend the call 
in a IVR and send to Voicemail if the user are unavailable.

It sounds crazy, but i star to reseach how skype works and how to create 
a control channel for this.

Any ideas are welcome.

Best regards.......... Fernando Romo
