Everyone,

I'm glad to announce that the Skype API is finally mature enough to be included in a public build. So as of now we have the API included in the main Skype for Windows.

We just released version 1.0.0.94, you can get it from http://www.skype.com/go/getskype

This is just the beginning of the API show, quick intro about what's coming up and going on:
* API forum to be made public in the coming days, API info to be posted on the www.skype.com website
* We will be introducing software developer programs (days to weeks from now)
* We will be introducing certification programs (days to weeks from now)
* Licencing - no licence is required to use or develop with the Skype API
* New features for the API - conferencing support and other things that you've been asking for. Support for upcomgin Skype features.

Official announcent of the API is following a while later.

Releasenotes for the public version (compared to latest beta avail here) are below, doc will be cleaned up and uploaded tomorrow.

Thank you all for your help!

Is comercial use of this API allowed?

Will we be able to use the API in future MacOSX versions ?
