[Gloucs] Skype or similar animals.

[Geoff Bagley]

Greetings all.

My daughter Alison has emigrated to Ireland begorrah.

Today,  having got her broad-band,  she phoned us using Skype.

A quick check on Google reveals that Skype for Debian runs on KDE,  and 
is said to be buggy.

Does any of the gang use Skype,  or some other equivalent beast. 

Would they be inter-operable, or will Skype only talk via Skype ?

I saw a bit on one of the news feeds  ( either The Register or The 
Inquirer)  that said that the "German Plod" were complaining
bitterly that they could not monitor VoIP ! 

Best regards to all,

Geoff.
