Since this article was (properly) AfD'd there has been new news coverage and I believe this coverage means that circumstances are substantially changed from the AfD and this deserves a second look. When the article was first deleted, the deletion was appealed to me and I declined to do anything because it looked like a good call. But, circumstances have changed since there is new news coverage.

[edit] Skype protocol
Does Fring do voice to Skype? If so how? Do they have an agreement with Skype or did they reverse-engineer the Skype Protocol? Pgr94 (talk) 17:07, 2 June 2008 (UTC)
