On the more optimistic note I have seen a good argument that there are enough hardware Skype phones with Skype that they can't easily block older versions without breaking a lot of devices. If Skype decides to block older version of software, then all it needs is to furnish Skype Phone hardware manufacturers with a new code to come up with a new firmware to support new Skype version. Then, hackers will start to reversed engineer on the new version. And, the cat/mouse chase begins.
OTOH, it looks like the source was released to https://github.com/skypeopensource/skypeopensource/downloads GitHUB on 6/2/11. let's see how fast it will become a Linux compilable package/plugin/module. I won't be surprised to see a working mod_skype_re(versed engineered) soon if Anthony and/or FS developers will decide to port the source into an FS module.
