Skype does not support IPv6

News story excerpts:

....Skype has another problem that's becoming increasingly troublesome: It doesn't support Internet Protocol version 6 (IPv6).

This is rather odd. Windows 8, and earlier versions of Windows, support IPv6. With the last IPv4 addresses vanishing, more and more businesses and groups are moving to IPv6 and most (other) Microsoft applications have long supported the next generation Internet protocol. By staying stuck in the IPv4 lane, Skype will not only become unusable for some users, it's also becoming an obstacle to IPv6 adoption....

.... "Skype is the poster child of IPv4 dependence."
