Let's not take this one completely off the table yet.  SSHv2
would be extremely useful in helping open up communication
with external systems again.  I use to find sshnet extremely
viable in a mixed network where now I'm just using sshv2 to
tunnel in overly complicated startup scripts.

If someone is interested, with a predisposition towards
security issues, including a track record of tackling such
a task, I'd say we encourage it.  Getting us one step closer
to dealing with the default toolchain for many systems would
help for any future projects.
