Microsoft could never be held responsible for supporting older versi= ons indefinitely, especially when updating is so easy on most systems. In truth, all of the "skype" ports should probably be removed since they do= n't or won't work for much longer, and the latest version of skype imported to = the ports tree. --=20 Carmel
