Have recompiled the extension with latest dream libraries. You might have to update your mono, if deikiwiki shows error while loading the extension.

The problem is how the URL for the status is encoded and what skype's http://mystatus.skype.com/ expects.
http://mystatus.skype.com/wekey.it interprets 'wekey' as the nickname and '.it' as the language selector, which actually is not correct, at least for me...
The workaround is to add a '.it' or '.en' at the end of the nickname and the extension will work smoothly.
