I just checked a hunch:

Skype -- all code is Delphi, as is all new development.

And you honestly believe this ?

(The reason for asking is that Skype is cross platform, and with cross platform code then at least the engine under is usually in portable C/C++ libraries so they don't have to rewrite everything for each platform), and Delphi is of course.....Pascal !
Actually, yes, I do believe this. From Jaanus at Skype:

"We are reusing the language files from Skype for Windows that is currently implemented in Delphi."

So, yes, the Windows release is in Delphi. The portable code was migrated to C++ as far as I can tell, so you now use a DLL on Windows to access the Skype API.
