Hi again, The Hangouts 429 (rate limit exceeded) issue is a separate one again (I had a link just a second ago to the github issue tracker, but lost it again, sorry), and can happen if you re-authenticate too many times in an hour - we do a lot of requests at login to build up conversation and buddy history, which can easily push things over the limit. You might have inadvertently run into it when reconnecting to the Hangouts account after installing the Skype plugin.
