Article title: Skype will follow the open-source protocol to publish a Linux client. Linux is a technology channel of the IT lab in China. Includes basic categories such as desktop applications, Linux system management, kernel research, embedded systems, and open source.

Skype (the world's most famous VoIP communication software) decided to open source. The cause is that a Skype user named Olivier FAURAX in France sent an email to the Skype company requesting the Skype software under the Mandriva (one of the more popular Linux distributions in France) version.

Olivier FAURAX received a reply after a simple conversation with Skype's customer support staff: we are very clear that many users complain that there is no manriva version of Skype, however, we are happy to tell you that Skype will soon follow the open-source protocol to release the Linux client.

In fact, this is a good news for not many Linux users, but it also brings a certain test to the security of Skype.
