This can be configure within the skype program options.

I wonder, that if the knowledge of 'chinese software company' will be shared, is there a slight chance for a full skype protocol?

Unlikely to happen.

http://www.voipwiki.com/blog/ - this has an interesting article (the posting with the "official statement" from those who are said to have "cracked" the skype protocol).

Looks more like skype will get some competition...

it will be still nice to have skype protocol plugin for MirandaIM because what i dislike is super-node mode of Skype (if You have 5+ mbit connection with forwarded ports You know what i mean) ...

this mode turns Your running skype into network middleman for other computers in Skype network , all You need is good CPU and bandwidth and Skype idling active ....

while plugin for MIM will act only sender/receiver not some sort of 'HUB' ...

This is nonsense, actually. Supernodes are an essential part of the skype network (and not only there), and are needed to ensure a properly functional network. If everybody would think that kind of egoistic, the entire network wouldn't work as it currently does.

If you cannot agree that a network uses your system for this kind of communications, then don't connect to it. Very simple.

Is anyone else experiencing problems with non-english characters like äöüß in received messages? They are not shown correctly for me.
ä=„
ö=”
ü= (a square)
ß=á
I'm on a German system and the other one was on a British English system.
In the original Skype, they are just fine... It looks like a problem with the Unicode conversion.
