I don't believe at all that this is the end of the linux client! Microsoft are a huge concern who are out to make money. I believe they see there own failings in the VOIP world and like most other companies where technology is short they buy in from outside.
I see this as a positive step and coming from me a MAC and Linux user and a prominent hater of the beast that is Microsoft says a lot. Develop the product make it more open thats the way forward! Skype as you all know is just one of the many VOIP/SIP providers out there this just means it will make the competition work harder and show what is possible with free software.
