We all have faith in you that you will meet all of your goals. The only disappointing thing is that Skype themselves charge a membership fee to gain access to their API. It looks like that the Skype kit isn't for open source developers like I and I'm sure that many others want to be someday.

However, as this is an initial release, there are bound to be problems and growing pains as many more users begin working with the program. Support for other screen readers (including NVDA) should be working. The fact that some do and others do not is something we will be looking into. Also, keep in mind that this is just another way to access the Skype service. If you're happy with Skype Talking or whatever you have been using before, then by all means keep using it if you prefer. Our eventual goal is to match the official Skype client feature for feature. However, as Skype has had eight years to perfect their service and this project is only three months old, it will take time.
