Am I the only believing that they will just make the development for
Linux slower and will not cease it at all? I don't think they are that
bad.
If they did such a thing, Skype would lose its Linux users. And, AFAIK
they're some.

Ok, I just lost enthusiasm in further use of skype. Being closed source was
bad enough already, but I tolerated it due to its good-enough quality,
reliability and free-of-charge use for skype-to-skype calls. But now that
Microsoft is taking it over, I suddenly lost faith that these good features
will still be there from now on (not to mention Linux support).
Thus the question: is there a FOSS VoIP app that provides roughly the same
quality, reliability and free-as-in-beer service?
I do know that there are such VoIP apps, but I am not familiar with the
quality of service, availability and accessibility of each of those. I am
willing to migrate and start persuading my existing skype contacts (which
are
scattered all over the globe) to migrate to a FOSS solution as well. But I
cannot do that if this alternative does not provide functionality that at
least matches that of skype. It has to be up to the task.
So which one is on the top of the list, in your opinion?
TIA, :-)

I am sorry to hear the MS is taking over skype.
I am afraid that MS will soon alter the proprietary
protocol so that existing Linux and other non MS
ports will cease to function.
I have tried to run VoipBuster windows app on wine.
It always fails for connect to the main server.
