I agree. I'm just trying to figure out what prompted this to be posted here? I assumed there would be something particularly interesting about this release, but I can't see it...
I suppose such a large number of people here would be absolutely dependant on OpenSSH so any kind change or update is news to them. As well the 7.0 version number makes for a lovely even number and catching headline.
Yep, major version number changes usually bring about excitement to view what's new...
