News on the Skype reverse-engineering front

[Ralf-Philipp Weinmann]

I thought this might be of interest for the list, but haven't seen it 
mentioned/discussed here: Some progress has been made 
reverse-engineering the Skype protocol [1]. No details on the crypto 
implementation yet, but first attempts to understand the P2P model they 
use.

Cheers,
Ralf
