Karaka is a Skype/XMPP gateway that connects the Skype and XMPP clouds.

Implementing XEP-0100 for gateway support, XEP-0045 for multi-user chats and XEP-0144 for roster exchange, Karaka is a scalable distributed standards-compliant XMPP transport able to be hosted across a cluster of machines.

It bridges instant messaging and presence between a user’s Skype and XMPP (e.g., Jabber, GoogleTalk) accounts, and supports full presence and instant messaging exchange plus multi-user chat (“conference rooms”).

This product uses the Skype™ API but is not endorsed or certified by Skype.
