Comment:

 We have no desire to work on deciphering the Skype protocol, many smart
 people have tried and have not been successful. Further, even if the
 protocol was open we aren't in the position at the moment to take on
 further protocols. Third party protocol plugins are possible, and
 encouraged (but are likewise unlikely to be made as the Skype protocol
 would still need deciphering).
