I'm starting to suspect that we are seeing some nasty marketing
techniques infecting this newsgroup.
Too many "pro-Skype" messages, with too many trolls talking wonders
about the easiness of this, the affordability of that, etc... and
arguing against the "serious" stuff.
The suspect is that these people are bribed by Skype to advertise it
with the "viral marketing" technique to infiltrate relevant newsgroups,
and outweighing the balance to their (economic) advantage.
Any newbie reading some recent messages could get the big picture wrong.
Can we stick to the chapter, and talk about Voice over IP?
Skype is an Instant Messaging system, like Yahoo (that was doing voice
chat AGES before Skype) or MSN.
It doesn't belong to VoIP, the VoIP protocols are SIP and H323.
I don't want to sound "geek", but can we have a breath of fresh air?
