Microsoft adds "schedule a call" and ability to open docs in Office to Skype for Android.

If you are among those who wanted the ability to send and receive documents in Skype, Microsoft has made it possible to open such files directly in the Skype app for Android, provided you have the Microsoft Office apps installed on your device. In case you don't, you will be prompted to download them.

Microsoft is also letting Android users schedule Skype calls within the app simply by selecting a contact and clicking "schedule a call" in the menu to add to Outlook Calendar. Microsoft states in the change log that another calendar app can be used.
