Just a reminder - the talk about Debian's role in replacing Skype is
at 16:00 this Saturday.

Great, the list is now there for people who want to continue pursuing

  https://lists.fsfe.org/mailman/listinfo/free-rtc

There is already a push to repeat the VoIP client testing at FOSDEM in
February, I'm currently discussing with the Jabber and telephony
devroom co-ordinators.

For those who missed it, Microsoft has announced they are killing off

steps to make Skype more dominant in the corporate space.
