Jeremy Norris commented on SSHD-1017:
-------------------------------------

FYI, I was able to put together an implementation of this for the [JSch fork on 
Github|https://github.com/mwiede/jsch].

It was a bit tricky: it uses a combination of ChaCha20 fromĀ [JEP 
329|http://openjdk.java.net/jeps/329] combined with a standalone implementation 
of Poly1305 from [OpenJAX|https://github.com/openjax/security].

It's not possible to use the combined ChaCha20-Poly1305 implementation from JEP 
329, since OpenSSH doesn't follow the [RFC 
7539|https://tools.ietf.org/html/rfc7539] standard for this, and JEP 329 
doesn't allow for instantiating a standalone instance of just Poly1305.
