This idea is something that I have been thinking about for over a year or so now. Unfortunately, I extent of programming knowledge is in VB - not so much help here. Great to see some enthusiasm here..
I know for the longest time everyone was saying that video calling doesn't belong in XBMC. Thing is many other platforms are starting to move that way - now with GoogleTV and Microsoft having their own platforms - this makes perfect sense (Now if they could all play together - imaging not being able to call your friend because his cell phone is CDMA and yours is GSM - that baffles us, but not being able to talk to a skype user from ichat or other is perfectly acceptable to most).
Anyways - check out this webcam - designed to work with Logitech implementation of GoogleTV (Webcam on your tv mixed with a mediacenter platform?? But so many said neh.. ) but has been used successfully as a regular webcam.

Anyways - if there is any way I can help - testing etc - I'll do what I can..
