Not at all. They did get all of Skype's assets, but they modified the technology significantly to comply with NSA spying desires, as well as port the back-end from PostgreSQL to SQL Server. It was not a quick surgery, and now Skype is a regular old crappy MS product.

(I forget exactly which major version change it was; I do know that 6.xx is not significantly different from the version everyone I know avoided upgrading to until they were forced) -- did this not also happen on Windows?
