[Freeswitch-users] Skypopen failure ?

[ThunderZ]

I'm sorry, I don't mean it works with mod_skypopen this way, I cannot 
verify it.

I'm just saying that skype static 2.0.0.72 still works via GUI, so it is 
not as you mentioned that microsoft has retired the ability for old 
skype client to connect to skype network.

Siptosis also uses static 2.0.0.72 too, and it still works.   They do it 
by configure each skype client via GUI, with no initial configuration 
files.   During the setup process, they prompt the user to allow their 
"Skype4Java" api after skype client logs in. So I just think if 
mod_skypopen does it in a similar way, it will have a good chance to 
work too.
