How to download contacts from my Yahoo mail?

When I set up skype, I imported a list from Facebook, but it did not give me a chance to do the same from Yahoo mail. I have the option of gmail, hotmail, msn and then some unknown mail providers, but no Yahoo. So how do I get my contacts into skype to see who actually has skype?

Please use plain text.

Currently importing Yahoo! contacts is not supported.

I agree ---! I use both Yahoo and Hotmail however my largest list of contacts is in Yahoo! Adding them individually is a real pain! Any idea if this will change soon?

As Tamim noted a year ago, Skype is not supporting adding contacts from Yahoo.  Skype would announce if this were to be made available.
