I'm not a developer, which means I can't actively pick up any packages. If helpful, I would be willing to go through older open bugs and see if there is anything I can pick up. For net-im/skype, I did check a few things last week as I had issues connecting: bugs: 461668, 462504, 440512, 467252, 493068, 512576 are for version <4.3 which can no longer connect (Versions are being blocked by Skype upstream) I think these can be closed. Other bugs: 485792 - xscreensaver not showing skype notifications (I don't actually want this myself, so not able to test) 519096 - issue with 32bit compilation (I use amd64 exclusively, unable to test) 518922 - hard dependency need to be added for pulseaudio (I see some ebuild- code already listed, already got pulseaudio installed seperately) 514888 - Seems to be related to an issue with old chat-logs, there are links to skype-upstream in the report. This did not occur on my systems.
