I agree the name is unfortunate. There are discussions with upstream in https://github.com/francoismichel/ssh3/issues/79 and via emails. I have packaging in https://salsa.debian.org/go-team/packages/ssh3 but I will hold of uploading to NEW until some time has past to see if we there will be a rename, and to give it more time for testing. I have managed to install the packages and start a server and make a client connection to it. /Simon
