	    The internal handling of SSH options is re-written.</p>
          <p>
	    Previously there were no checks if a client option was
	    given to a daemon or vice versa. This is corrected now.
	    If your code has e.g. a client-only option in a call to
	    start a daemon, the call will fail.</p>

	    Modernization of key exchange algorithms. See
	    draft-ietf-curdle-ssh-kex-sha2 for a discussion.</p>
          <p>
	    Removed an outdated weak algorithm and added stronger
	    replacements to keep interoperability with other modern
	    ssh clients and servers. The default ordering of the
	    algorithms is also adjusted.</p>
          <p>
	    Retired: The nowadays unsecure key-exchange
	    <c>diffie-hellman-group1-sha1</c> is not enabled by
	    default, but can be enabled with the option
	    <c>preferred-algorithms</c>.</p>
          <p>
	    Added: The new stronger key-exchange
	    <c>diffie-hellman-group16-sha512</c>,
	    <c>diffie-hellman-group18-sha512</c> and
	    <c>diffie-hellman-group14-sha256</c> are added and
	    enabled by default.</p>
          <p>
	    The questionable [RFC 6194] sha1-based algorithms
	    <c>diffie-hellman-group-exchange-sha1</c> and
	    <c>diffie-hellman-group14-sha1</c> are however still kept
	    enabled by default for compatibility with ancient clients
	    and servers that lack modern key-exchange alternatives.
	    When the draft-ietf-curdle-ssh-kex-sha2 becomes an rfc,
	    those sha1-based algorithms and
	    <c>diffie-hellman-group1-sha1</c> will be deprecated by
	    IETF. They might then be removed from the default list in
	    Erlang/OTP.</p>

	    The Extension Negotiation Mechanism and the extension

          <p>
	    The related draft-ietf-curdle-rsa-sha2-05 is implemented
	    and introduces the signature algorithms
	    <c>rsa-sha2-256</c> and <c>rsa-sha2-512</c>.</p>

	    were also strange corner cases when the <c>'any'</c>
	    value was used in <c>Host</c> argument or <c>ip</c>
	    option. This is (hopefully) resolved now, but it may
	    cause incompatibilities for code using both <c>Host</c>
	    and the <c>ip</c> option. The value 'loopback' has been
	    added for a correct way of naming those addresses.</p>

	    The <c>ssh_connection_handler</c> module in SSH is

          <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>

	    There is now a file (public_key/priv/moduli) which lists
	    size-generator-modulus triples. The purpose is to give
	    servers the possibility to select the crypto primes
	    randomly among a list of pregenerated triples. This
	    reduces the risk for some attacks on diffie-hellman
	    negotiation.</p>

	    Integrate elliptic curve contribution from Andreas
	    Schultz </p>
          <p>
	    In order to be able to support elliptic curve cipher
	    suites in SSL/TLS, additions to handle elliptic curve
	    infrastructure has been added to public_key and crypto.</p>
          <p>
	    This also has resulted in a rewrite of the crypto API to
	    gain consistency and remove unnecessary overhead. All OTP
	    applications using crypto has been updated to use the new
	    API.</p>
          <p>
	    Impact: Elliptic curve cryptography (ECC) offers
	    equivalent security with smaller key sizes than other
	    public key algorithms. Smaller key sizes result in
	    savings for power, memory, bandwidth, and computational
	    cost that make ECC especially attractive for constrained
	    environments.</p>

            The erlang ssh server has presented itself incorrectly,
            using the special version ssh-1.99, although it never has
            supported versions below 2.0. Since ssh-1.1 client
            versions below 2.0 are correctly rejected instead of
            letting the server crash later on. Alas the problem with
            the presentation string was not discovered until after
            ssh.1.1 was released. Now the server will present itself
            as ssh-2.0.</p>

	A flaw in the implementation of the supervision tree
	caused the ssh daemon to close the connections to all
	currently logged in users if one user logged out. Another
	problem related to the supervision tree caused the closing
	down of clients to leak processes i.e. all processes was
      not shutdown correctly.</p>

	[sftp, sftpd] - Added patch to make sftp timestamps more
	correct, in the long run it would be nice to have better
	support in file to be able to make it always behave
	correctly now it will be correct 99 % of time instead of
      almost never correct, at least on unix-based platforms.</p>

	Ssh incorrectly sent the local id instead of the remote
	id of a channel to the peer. For simpler cases these ids
	often happen to have the same value. One case when they
	do not is when the client sends an exec command two times
	in a raw on the same ssh connection (different channels
	of course as the channel will be closed when the exec
      command has been evaluated) .</p>

	New API module ssh_channel has been added. This is a
	behaviour to facilitate the implementation of ssh clients
	and plug in subsystems to the ssh daemon. Note that this
	slightly changes the options to the API function
	ssh:daemon/[1,2,3] deprecating all no longer documented
	options. Note that the new API enforces the "logical way"
	of using the old API i.e. making the subsystem process
	part of the ssh applications supervisor tree, so missuses
      of the old API are not compatible with the new API.</p>
