Tox Website

Have you seen that? How about replacing Skype on Puppy with this one?

Thanks for the pointer. It looks interesting but is unclear whether it is Windows only or if there will be a Linux version. The site is up but no download available yet. Apparently it is still pre-alpha.

Looked at the files on Github and looks like it will be available for Linux, OSX, and Windows.

So does security! :)

I made a pet and a sfs for jitsihere. 22MB, which is similar to skype. Needs JRE, though. Tox sounds interesting as well.
