OK, so someone has a sip gateway into Skype? Cool, I suppose. Still doesn't interest me, but perhaps one could access Skype clients via it using command line twinkle, for instance. I still see no reason to bother with Skype, but that's just my view. I also don't see what part isn't true? That you can access Skype from Linux using a screen reader? Knock yourself out, I suppose. At $1.49 U.S. per phone number from Vitelity, and a cost of 1.1 cents per minute, I am quite happy with my pstn interconnection. And, that's for people I can't call for free using my voip client and server on Linux. Speaking for myself, you can keep your Skype, along with flash, pdf, etc., etc. Janina Dawes, Stephen writes: > Not true. > > Read the sip to skype article at: > http://blog.tmcnet.com/blog/tom-keating/skype/sip-to-skype-gateway-break > s-skypes-great-wall-of-voip.asp > > It tells you what you need to access skype from this the sip protocol, > including how it was accomplished in both windows and linux.
