Another work-in-progress release.

News for the 1.0.5 release

        Experimental support for RSA, using spki-style keys and
        signatures. 

        Some reorganization of signature algorithms, to support
        spki-style signatures (including rsa) properly.

        Fix for key renegotiation bug reported by jps.

        New algorithms bulk encryption algorithms: serpent and
        rijndael. Rijndael implementation and lsh glue code
        contributed by Rafael R. Sevilla. Serpent implementation by
        Ross Anderson, Eli Biham, and Lars Knudsen.

        New option -call to use any supported bulk encryption
        algorithm; the default preference list is quite conservative.

        New option --hostkey-algorithm, to tune the hostkey algorithm
        preference list.

        Renamed lsh_keygen and lsh_writekey to lsh-keygen and
        lsh-writekey, respectively (actually happened in 1.0.4, but I
        forgot to mention that).

I'm considering adopting linux-style version numbers, using x.even.y
for versions that are supposed to converge to something stable, and
x.odd.y for unstable versions. I've got a new disk at home, so I
actually have the space for several checked out trees. Comments?

I'm leaving for linux-kongress in Erlangen early tomorrow morning.
I'll be back on Sunday.

Happy hacking!
