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.
