What Skype functionality are you trying to replace? VoIP, IM, Video Chat, placing and receiving calls with traditional phone networks?
Jitsi, http://www.jitsi.org/ , is a pretty decent replacement for most of those things. It was recently covered on the Floss Weekly podcast. http://twit.tv/floss162 It can use SIP and Jabber to initiate the calls and includes wideband audio support which is what makes skype sound better than most alternatives. It supports most IM servers and with a SIP service provider you can make and receive calls to the traditional phone networks. -- David On Mon, Jun 20, 2011 at 4:06 PM, Mark Woodward <ma...@mohawksoft.com> wrote: > I may have asked this before, is there a practical replacement for Skype > now that they've been bought by Microsoft?
