[asterisk-users] Skype for Asterisk???

[Michael Graves]

I wonder if that was not a codec specific issue, but rather the matter
of their license to the p2p technology provided by JoltID? Since Skype
has recently dveloped their own codec (SILK) they could easily drop
support for any codec that they previously licensed from outside. I
think that the failure to ge a new license on a codec would not be a
major issue for them.

Failure to renew the license on the p2p transport technology is a much
more significant problem.

Ah didn't spot that, if you are running 1.6.1, you need a version that
isn't available yet.
