Actually, there's also the GPL'd "lsh":

    http://www.net.lut.ac.uk/psst/

but of course it doesn't seem to be as far along as the ssh.fi version.
It'll probably catch up, though, as an independent implementation is
apparently required for the standardization process.

Ah.  I didn't realize it was that restrictive -- I thought they were using
the usual definition of "commercial use" and thought it didn't apply to me.

So has ssh1 been kept up as security holes have been found, or does one need 
to use it in conjunction with some 3rd-party patch repository?
