>> On Windows, no need to do anything special, the Skype client is lighter on CPU.

>> Skypiax is now pre-beta, but usable for testing and finding bugs :-).

>> You can download Skypiax source code with subversion with the command:
>>
>> svn co http://svn.freeswitch.org/svn/freeswitch/branches/gmaruzz/src/mod/endpoints/mod_skypiax
>> mod_skypiax
>>
>> then, follow the README file in the mod_skypiax directory.
