Hi all,

the libssh upstream developers released libssh 0.6.0rc1 some days ago [1].

Here is the list of new features that we hopefully find time and man  
power to cincorporate into X2Go Client:

     Added new publicy key API.
     Added new userauth API.
     Added gssapi-mic userauth.
           ^^^^^^^^^^ -> Kerberos based logins

     Added new callback based server API.
     Added Elliptic Curve DSA (ECDSA) support (with OpenSSL).
     Added Elliptic Curve Diffie Hellman (ECDH) support.
           ^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^ -> finally ECDSA support

     Added improved logging system.
     Added SSH-agent forwarding.
           ^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^ -> PyHoca-GUI already has this and it is
                                   cool!!!
     Added key-reexchange.
     Improved documentation.
     Fixed timeout handling.
