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.

"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.
