Testers wanted

To ensure that future releases of portable OpenSSH are as bug-free as
possible, we need to recruit a team of testers.

Each tester would be responsible for a particular OS platform and
would be called upon to test snapshots before they are marked as
official releases. The release would not go out until it had been
given the OK by testers on each supported platform.

A corollary of this is that only platforms for which we have testers
will be treated as supported.

Exactly what tests should be performed is a matter for further 
discussion. They will include at least compilation and basic operation
of each of the programs. Hopefully we can automate these tests as much
as possible.

If you are interested, please email me the details of what platform(s)
you are able to test. Favour will be given to people who have
contributed to OpenSSH and those with development experience.
