I don't think it's a good idea, because:

a) It's illegal
b) You risk having your user account banned if microsoft finds out somehow
c) Miranda deprecated the skypekit plugin as it should
d) You are encouraging Microsoft in their crappy treatment of users.

Instead, I think you could try going for a different protocol. Currently, Tox seems to be the most promising.

Once again - SkypeKit is dead, period, we will not patch or use someone else certificate that will inevitably lead to account ban sooner or later. Thread is closed.
