bga68compВозможно у Skype скоро будет новый кросс-платформенный клиент под названием Skype for Life
Microsoft закрыла офис в Лондоне:
Microsoft is closing the London office that was home to part of its Skype development, causing the loss of 220 jobs. A further 300 people are losing their jobs in Redmond as Microsoft makes cuts that were previously announced in July.
Moving Skype development to the US also demonstrates Microsoft's continued change of attitude toward Skype.
Microsoft is consolidating offices across London, moving employees to Microsoft’s new office at Paddington. As part of this effort, Microsoft reviewed some London-based roles and made the decision to unify some engineering positions, potentially putting at risk a number of globally focused Skype and Yammer roles. We are deeply committed to doing everything we can to help those impacted through this process. Microsoft will be entering into a consultation process and offer new opportunities, where possible.

Чрезмерное количество клиентов Skype (традиционный настольный/десктопный клиент Windows desktop app и macOS client; новое универсальное приложение Universal Windows Platform app for Windows 10, мобильные приложения Windows 10 Mobile, iOS и Android; клиент Skype для Web; и базирующееся на Web автономное приложение для Linux, которое имеет сборки, работающие под Windows тоже) послужило одной из причин разработки нового кросс-платформенного клиента для Windows, Linux, MacOS, iOS, and Android.
Время покажет правда ли это.
Кстати - Слухи: Skype готовит новый кросс-платформенный клиент под названием Skype for Life
