What happened to my Messenger contacts in Skype?

The Skype contact list is being cleaned up in order to make sure Messenger contacts without Skype accounts aren’t included in the contact list of your Skype account.

You are still able to communicate with any Messenger contacts with a Skype account who also have a Skype account in your contact list, even if they do not have a Skype account. Furthermore, you will continue to be able to access Messenger contacts that you remove from Skype as email contacts in the People application on www.live.com if they are removed from Skype.
