Several people have already expressed interest in allowing GW Skype to be discussed here, so I urge people to avoid writing further support messages for allowing this. In terms of voting, the "All in favor, say Aye," call went out already, and was answered. I have put forth the "All opposed, say No," call now, so I'm only listening for people who don't want GW Skype discussed here. :)
