Bing Enterprise Chat enabled by default for all

Another Lync 2013 for Android update

Microsoft has released a new Lync 2013 update for Android (On play).

- Tablet support (excludes Tegra2 based devices)
- Add participants into an ongoing conversation (IM or Lync Meeting)
- Start an ad-hoc group conversation
- Security improvements through tightened SSL validation.

I have installed it myself, and found it to be working just fine.
