     Heh, well, those non-free parts are gone.  That gets
big points from me.  The fact they did a full security audit
doesn't hurt either.  To me that's a big enough deal to use
openssh over the standard ssh package.  And I never claimed
that the openssh kids wrote ssh or deserved credit for doing
such, I just said it was the better option.
