Skype Journal: Skype Linux 1.0.0.20

March 19, 2005 08:22 AM

Skype for Linux joins the Mac and Windows with voice mail and a central contacts capability.

This release has many cool features, among others SkypeIn, Voicemail and Central Contacts List. It is compatible with the recent betas of Skype for Windows and Mac OS X so one major shortcoming in Skype is now over - you can use the same contact list in all machines without manual copying or re-entering. Also, we have contact groups - those are not part of central contactlist yet but will be.

There's a tech change too - feedback welcome on this. All versions except the static one now require glibc 2.3.2. The static one is still based on 2.2.5 and can be used on older systems too, but in other builds, we're moving to newer glibc. Skype Forum
