I don't know about ossh, but there probably isn't much collaboration going
on between lsh and OpenSSH, as lsh implements the SSH 2.0 protocol, and
OpenSSH implements 1.3 and 1.5, I think. In fact, the attitude that I've
seen in my limited contact with OpenSSH is that 2.0 is 'too complicated'
and will not get implemented because of that.
Since I'm a US citizen, OpenSSH isn't legal for me to use in a commercial
environment, so I'm hoping for lsh to start working on FreeBSD 3.X
someday. I'd try fixing it, but between the lack of time, and the fact
that legally I'm probably not even supposed to supply bugfixes, I've never
gotten around to it.
