Skype Whacks Developer Program in London

Not long after my post on Plug In London and Paul Amery, I received dreadful news. Paul sent out an email to friends and colleagues that he is moving on from Skype as Director of the Developer Program. Sad . Paul did a great job according to many, some developer partners have said a much better job than the prior team in place.

Three of the four London based developer program folks are also gone. My sources tell me the jobs end up in Talinn under Sten Tamkivi, Skype's General Manager, eCommerce and General Manager in Estonia.

 

 

Update: Jim Courtney has some additional details on this.

Tom Raferty, out of Ireland has wonders about Skype's future interest in developer efforts....
