Since I've never dealt with Theo, I won't comment on the ability (or
lack thereof) of Theo to hold a public discussion with others.
What I AM concerned about is the discussion of a possible 1.6 protocol.
Since the openssh-dev-list was never involved in that discussion, could
someone please let us know the details.

Speaking completely without facts, I am personally skeptical about
enhancing the 1.x protocol when all of the standards processes are
focused on getting 2.0 out the door. That said, I am willing to be
convinced on the matter.

Thanks,
David
