+ A socket created and connected by gen_tcp could now be
+ used as input to ssh:connect, ssh:shell,
+ ssh_sftp:start_channel and ssh:daemon.</p>

+ Optimized the sftp client time by setting new packet and
+ window sizes.</p>
+ <p>
+ Own Id: OTP-13175</p>
+ </item>
+ <item>
+ <p>
+ The <c>ssh_connection_handler</c> module in SSH is
+ changed and now uses the new behaviour <c>gen_statem</c>. </p>
+ <p>
+ The module can be used as an example of a
+ <c>gen_statem</c> callback module but with a warning:
+ This commit of ssh is just a straightforward port from
+ gen_fsm to gen_statem with some code cleaning. Since the
+ state machine and the state callbacks are almost
+ unchanged the ssh module does not demonstrate the full
+ potential of the new behaviour.</p>
+ <p>
+ The "new" state machine uses compound states. The ssh
+ server and client state machines are quite similar but
+ differences exist. With <c>gen_fsm</c> there were flags
+ in the user data which in fact implemented "substates".
+ Now with <c>gen_statem</c> those are made explicit in the
+ state names, eg. the state <c>userauth</c> and the binary
+ <c>role</c>-flag becomes the two state names
+ <c>{userauth, server}</c> and <c>{userauth, client}</c>.</p>
+ <p>
+ Own Id: OTP-13267</p>
+ </item>
+ <item>
+ <p>
+ The <c>{error, Reason}</c> tuples returned from
+ <c>ssh_sftp</c> api functions are described.</p>
+ <p>
+ Own Id: OTP-13347 Aux Id: ERL-86 </p>
+ </item>
+ <item>
+ <p>
+ Added -spec in ssh</p>
+ <p>
+ Own Id: OTP-13479</p>
+ </item>
+ <item>
+ <p>
+ It is now possible to call <c>ssh:daemon/{1,2,3}</c> with
+ <c>Port=0</c>. This makes the daemon select a free
+ listening tcp port before opening it. To find this port
+ number after the call, use the new function
+ <c>ssh:daemon_info/1</c>. See the reference manual for
+ details.</p>
