Well not entirely skype has had conferencing for a long time and they also have run beta trials on skype voicemail but have chosen not to implement it commercially yet.
I don't see the point of this discussion. Skype is the pstn service; Asterisk is a pabx; No one ran around telling ma bell she needed to give pabx like features to the pstn service. Let the thread die.

Asterisk could do the high-quality voice if it didn't care about interoperability. Skype lacks voicemail, CDRs, queues, IVRs, conferencing, music on hold; the list goes on and on.
