Thanks Guillaume. Things are becoming clearer. You seem to be the mastermind
behind this beast. Any big plans for SSHD at FUSE or elsewhere?

I did a little digging regarding the GSOC student, thinking that I would
contact him to see what he's up to. ASF has an accepted project for GSOC
(http://socghop.appspot.com/program/home/google/gsoc2009), and a student and
mentor (Rory Winston from commons-net) assigned
(http://socghop.appspot.com/student_project/show/google/gsoc2009/asf/t124021710160),
but the student doesn't seem actually to be working on it. His GSOC blog
(http://shikhrr.wordpress.com/) and commits in the project show that he
visited Google last month and that he worked all last month on something
that's probably more useful to Google, a Python NETCONF client
(http://code.google.com/p/ncclient/me).

I have some time next week. I'm interested to read in parallel thread that
SSHD can build and pass tests without error. I still have about 400 errors
showing in Eclipse, and I have to hack out some Bouncy Castle stuff (which I
didn't include) to get the client to run. I'll see if I can get the svn
repository into Eclipse without errors.
