No, that wasn't really what I meant.  You could be correct though.  I don't
know - other than it is available via the OpenSSH web page (hosted by
OpenBSD).  What I meant was that OpenBSD wrote OpenSSH as part of their
system.  All the OS source is publically available - and thus - OpenSSH
became community property so to speak.   I think it is cool that they have
done that.  Incidentally, FreeBSD 4.0 already has OpenSSH merged into the
base system.
