Skype Client for Linux to go Open Source

Good news for Skype Linux users. The Skype for Linux website announces the development of an open source version of the Skype Client for Linux. Here goes the announcement;

“Yes, there’s an open source version of Linux client being developed. This will be a part of larger offering, but we can’t tell you much more about that right now. Having an open source UI will help us get adopted in the “multicultural” land of Linux distributions, as well as on other platforms and will speed up further development. We will update you once more details are available.”

After many years of under-development of Skype for Linux, here comes a big turn, what do you think???
