Guys, recently there are two projects integrating Skype with Asterisk & SIP (http://www.rsdevs.com/ and also http://www.chanskype.com/). They are all paywarez. I know, I know – doing it their way sucks, but at the point there’s no other way (even though the Chinese claim to have already reverse-engineered the Skype protocol – http://www.voipwiki.com/blog/?p=31). There’s one IVR product (http://www.callbutler.com/) that also just added Skype support. VoxLib.com (even if I couldn’t make it work) also does it. The old mate NCH also does it now - http://www.nch.com.au/skypetosip/index.html.

I think it could be very cool even from pure marketing point of view to implement something like this in FreeSwitch.

BTW, ChanSkype claims support for 30 channels and probably even more.
