Hi All, I've been working on a diff to get SSHFP support for ed25519 in OpenSSH. SM has been working through the IETF process to obtain the SSHFP RR Type number. Despite getting "rough consensus", we still haven't heard anything from the IETF Security Directors for the draft. SM sent a mail aski

The OpenBSD user community needs to shake things up
