Just to describe what is going on -

OpenSSH has requested one student slot for this year's summer of code.
This is our first time, so this is both an experiment and a learning
exercise.

I'm currently quite swamped with questions from prospective students,
but I intend to answer them en-masse on Monday.

Most of the discussion for the GSoC work will be happening on this
mailing list, so please constructive in your comments and tolerant of
someone who, in all likelihood, is less experiences with free software
development and many people here.
