Hello, Should have joined this list earlier and introduced myself! I am working on adding SSH to Commons-Net as a GSOC project and am reusing Mina SSHD code for that purpose. The repository for the project is http://code.google.com/p/commons-net- ssh/source/browse/src/main/java/org/apache/commons/net/ssh/.
Commons-Net can't depend on Mina so I have replaced that part with threads and blocking I/O. (see transport package in above repo) The SSHD code has proven extremely useful so far. I like the codebase, am growing increasingly familiar with it, and would love to contribute back once GSOC is over.

The NETCONF library was my final year research project at university. Curious about what you meant by "more useful to Google" :-) Anyway, I started work late, in the 2nd week of June, because I was graduating and had to pack all my stuff and move. I am making up for the time I lost now, and hope to be fully up to speed by the end of the month. Best, Shikhar
