Jeremy Norris commented on SSHD-1017:
-------------------------------------
Yes, I don't disagree, that it would be fantastic to have a proposed extension
that implemented a ChaCha20-Poly1305 variant that adhered more closely to RFC
7539 :). It's just for my personal usage (with JSch and other Java based SSH
implementations), I have to interact with OpenSSH on the other end, so until
they implement it, it doesn't help me significantly. That's all I meant.

> Project: MINA SSHD
> Issue Type: New Feature
> Reporter: Matt Sicker
> Priority: Major
>
> See [protocol
> details|https://github.com/openbsd/src/blob/master/usr.bin/ssh/PROTOCOL.chacha20poly1305].
> * [RFC 7539|https://tools.ietf.org/html/rfc7539] describes the
> ChaCha20-Poly1305 algorithm.
> * [Dropbear
> implementation|https://github.com/mkj/dropbear/blob/master/chachapoly.c]
> * [OpenSSH
> implementation|https://github.com/openbsd/src/blob/master/usr.bin/ssh/cipher-chachapoly-libcrypto.c]
> The cipher is provided by Bouncycastle.
> As a bonus, this could potentially be adapted to propose an equivalent
> AES/GCM cipher encoding to how OpenSSH implements this ChaCha20-Poly1305
> cipher.
