1. How is it "a better maintained library" ?
I assume this is judging by the amount of recent commits on both projects,
so it's not a perfect metric and it's gonna be hard to argue for it in case
of disagreement. My assumption might be wrong though and the people who said
it could have different metrics for it.
I won't say they are, but it *could* be that some people involved there are
biased. Of course nobody asked me, but had they, I would have asked for
clarification on a lot of those points.
Daniel, I won't rush this change and I value your input on this, as both
curl and libssh2's upstream, so feel free to take your time to reply.
I feel that I'm not on a neutral ground here so I rather avoid taking sides at
all. I want the decision to based on sound and solid reasons by people who
understand them. Whatever direction it goes.
On my initial assessment I couldn't find considerable differences that would
weigh in favour of staying with libssh2, I did stumble upon your blogposts
talking about performance (libssh2 being better) but they are a bit old and
I'm not sure if it's still applicable.
Yeah, I haven't done any such comparisons in many years. The situation is much
likely very different today.
