So our previous estimation was a little bit off, but I bet it's going to be a June thing.

finally, i've been interested in this for a while, i want to see how they plan on doing this

I reported that.

Integration with the Yahoo! messenger servicve? meaning people on yahoo can add people from WLM and vice versa

YA RLY.

it means that the yahoo servers and the WLM/MSN servers will be connected, allowing comunication across both clients, but they haven't really said how they will do it

sounds kewl, I don't even use yahoo but alot of people do, so makes commuting alot easier

Sounds sweet, i use Yahoo for audio because WLM major memory usage so think its gonna be sweet to use

Old MS   Oct. 12, 2005  to be exact.

same with yahoo posted long time go

Ya. this news is old.
Though, both msn messenger and yahoo messenger server connection has yet to establish, still they are doing so. Till now, both messengers' servers aren't connected. This means, neither one of the messengers can be connected to each other at the moment.
When I heard this news, I tried adding my personal yahoo account on my personal msn account, the result, unsuccessful.
Tested recently, also unsuccessful.
Therefore. currently, both hotmail users and yahoo users can't be connected using msn messenger/WLM  and yahoo Messenger with voice respectively.
Just wait for the news. It'll be coming soon. very soon i hope.
* correct me if i'm wrong.

Mess.be completely forgot to link to the actual news in their post. The real news is on Inside Windows Live Messenger blog: Not Yet, But Soon: Windows Live + Yahoo!

Especially this:

They’ve still got some work to do – specifically final testing.

yes. O_o
Phil Collins says, that the code for this integration is already done.
In the moment, intern beta testers are test this feature an it comes mid or end of summer.

A non-Beta version of Windows Live Messenger is now listed at ideas.live.com:

"Now you can use Windows Live Messenger to talk to your friends who use Yahoo! Messenger with Voice. Just sign up by clicking “Try it” below, and you’ll be on your way to having all your IM friends in one place. The world’s most popular IM network just got even bigger."
Some "frequently asked questions" from the same page:

How do I start sending messages to friends who use Yahoo! Messenger with Voice?

Once you sign up for this feature, you can add Yahoo! Messenger contacts to your contact list in the usual way. Under “Contacts,” click “Add a contact” and enter your friend’s Yahoo! e-mail address. That’s it!

Can I really talk to anyone who uses Yahoo! Messenger?

Eventually, yes, you will be able to talk to anyone who uses Yahoo! Messenger with Voice. But for now, your Yahoo! Messenger contacts will need to have the new beta version of Yahoo! Messenger with Voice in order to talk to you.

For the moment the Try it button doesn't seem to do much, but that will probably change soon.
