Isn't this just, like, a rumour?  Often rumours about Messenger release dates tend to be true, but even so...

Yes, it is a uncomfirmed rumour. However, i think it could actually be that soon as not so long ago (can't be bothered to check exactly when) MS did tell us that the Beta was drawing to a close. So it could indeed be true.

Not sure if Microsoft will announce before hand about the official release. With the release of MSN Messenger 7.0 Beta testers were informed just hours before it was made available (If i remember correctly).

As he says, I think this could be possible, also, if you checked out the official wlm blog, they say they even got the Yahoo! communication working.. so my guess is they won't need more than a couple of weeks.. Seeing as the GUI is final as they said.. and well I don't think any new features are going to be added..

True, but i'd expect they'd want to do further testing. Currently its only been tested internally within MS. So as far as Y!M + WLM is concern, i think 1 week may be too little time to test.

Interview with Phil Holden

here you can read(german > translate to english xD)
In the blue box, you can read the interview in german or see the video from the interview in english.

Phil Holden says, that the code is already ready and works and the completion goes release.

And he says, that in this year, an update from WLM comes again and than, in this update is include the new communicate with Y!M.

QUOTE:
WinFuture:
There is already prospect within this range on a functioning voice communication between Yahoo! - and MSN USern?     
P. Holden:
For the start this is not planned, looks themselves one however the two enterprises, will on clearly that we want to co-operate as much as possible, we must however first the bases for it create. The voice communication between MSN and Yahoo! probably yet in the first final expenditure of the Windows live measuringclose will not be contained. It possibly follows with a later update. We hope to update the new services within in each case one quarter.       

WinFuture:
Thus are more frequently new versions of the Windows live measuringclose to be expected?     
P. Holden:
We try to accelerate generally the development. It is to be made too early somewhat around over it statements about it. You should not surprise you however, if there is a new expenditure to see still in this year.
