You won't find one. The Skype protocol is propriety and there is no 
specification available. The communication is widely obfuscated, so don't 
expect an open source program based on reverse engineering soon. See 
<http://www.secdev.org/conf/skype_BHEU06.handout.pdf> for some details.

Applications like Kopete, Ekiga, etc. can be used for similar 
communication with open protocols.
