Also, ion3 was IIRC removed recently also for upstream trying to force new versions against our stable policy. And that was opensource.

But maybe Skype is not so pressing to upgrade, just doesn't provide distfiles anymore. Then maybe we don't have to obey, but still it's really questionable if it should be marked stable at all. And yeah I'm a Java dev but at least Java is now open (I admit that the stable VM's in tree are not, yet) and I don't see that coming for Skype. Also Java (and your examples of closed source stuff) are not infamous for the bad stuff mentioned above.

[3] Oh noes, you cited ( essentially ) open-source arbitrary information :P
