I've recently installed on one of partitions stable WITH GNOME and after editing sources.list upgraded to testing/stretch without any problems. You would be able to install Skype for now, since one of the libs is not ported to testing yet. It actually possible but requires quite a bit of workarounds, which I am not willing to engage in. I'd rather wait. And another one - stardict. It is not in testing yet. For now I've installed goldendict, which I like much less. But again it's just a matter of waiting. I'm monitoring the behaviour for about 3 weeks now. So far, no problems and the system looks perfectly stable and very nice.
