Hi.  Here are pointers to ongoing work related to SSH.

Ben Harris work on Ed25519 signatures:
https://tools.ietf.org/html/draft-bjh21-ssh-ed25519-02

Aris Adamantiadis work on X25519/X448 key exchange:
https://tools.ietf.org/html/draft-josefsson-ssh-curves-03

Damien Millers work on ChaCha20-Poly1305 cipher:
https://tools.ietf.org/html/draft-josefsson-ssh-chacha20-poly1305-openssh-00

These documents have been discussed on the ietf-ssh mailing list where
the SSH experts hang out: http://news.gmane.org/gmane.ietf.secsh

For completeness, compare the already published RFC 7479 on the Ed25519
SSHFP DNS resource record: https://tools.ietf.org/html/rfc7479

If anyone here has feedback on the documents, that would be welcome.
Please change the subject line if you have comments on one particular
document only.  There are known open issues, so let's see if you spot
them. :-)
