You can count Cyclades as a commited maintainer then! ;)

Cyclades currently uses a modified version of OpenSSH with our own 
implementation of break-over-SSH (based on the interception of a 
pre-configurable string, which defaults to `~break'). 

Now that there is a standard using the SSH protocol itself, Cyclades 
will work on getting this implementation into OpenSSH (we'll make 
both implementations work on our products -- for backwards 
compatibility --, and will work with the OpenSSH folks to have the 
standard one included in the official OpenSSH release).

Does anyone have pointers as to who we should contact in the OpenSSH 
team to work on this?!?!

Thanks!

Later,
