Where is the new CEO?

It has been almost 5 months since Niklas Zennström stepped down as Skype CEO and was replaced “ad interim” by Michael van Swaaij.In the meantime, there were some rumours, and some facts:

• Google sniffing round Skype
• Whitman resigns as eBay CEO
• IMHO, no innovations anymore at Skype, no strategy changes, and still too many bugs and customer complaints
• eBay is about to sell Skype to Hutchison Whampoa

So, when will know where the ship is going? Remember only this …
eBay agreed that if, on or prior to March 31, 2008, eBay sells or transfers securities representing greater than 50% of the outstanding voting power of, or economic interest in, Skype (it) would pay up to an additional €138,411,300 … to the Earn Out Sellers.

Therefore, no official news before April 1st i guess. And i hope this will not be an April 1st joke!
