Compact SSH? (re: enough processing power)

[Thomas DuBuisson]

While this is hardly the project focus the boards I am using can handle a 
slave Rabbit 2000 which could be added and dedicated to SSH.  Extern 
memory is also an option - but again, this is not a focus so if it is 
added it would be down the road.

That said, I will update the list if/when an SSH program is implemented 
in the project. Thanks for the discussion and recommendations.
