Probably. :) I do have a got git-snapshot with this fix in place (or could
easily fetch the newest changes and rebuild), but this "production-ready"
requirement makes me hesitate. ;)

Depends... here's a list of problems I FOUND (but not fixed):

- sometimes, I have to resume a session, restart the client, suspend the session
and resume it again for it to be usable (first time resuming will just close the
connection to the server), BUT IIRC this happens on Linux, too, so I can't
actually blame the OS X part... (plus, it only happens sometimes. :()
- Client seems to be working fine for me on OS X 10.6/Snow Leopard. But:
  - has some weird memleak on OSX 10.5 (not always, again...)
  - Stephan reported problems on 10.7 which seem to be SSH-related, I've gotta
take a look at that, no idea if I can figure it out though. Looks like a libssh
problem, but at least I've got some debug output.

No concrete code fixes from my side yet though.

Best regards,


Mihai
