OK, thanks Emmanuel. I did some more digging around and I see the major use of MINA is in ApacheDS, which you seem very involved in, and that Apache DS implements some interesting protocols. I also see that you and Guillaume have put in a significant amount of work so far to implement SSHD. Does this mean that you intend to use SSHD to enable SSH in ApacheDS?
Whatever your uses for the library, I think there's huge potential for high quality, scalable open source Java SSH implementation as I think you intend with SSHD, and I'd like to see the project succeed. For my own part I'll find out more about Apache processes in general and MINA in particular, and I think I can make a small contribution if I can learn enough about the purpose and direction of the SSHD project to know where I can be of value.
