Hi. Are there any plans to get OpenSSH 6.2 in 9-STABLE? I'd like to
check out the new AES-GCM stuff without going to -CURRENT on this
system. If there are no plans, is there a possibility? Thanks

Please refer to ports/security/openssh-portable; its Makefile says it's
6.2p2,1, last updated about 5 days ago.

Peace,

Thanks, but that wasn't what I asked about. I'm aware of the
version in ports.

Try freebsd-...@freebsd.org, I am certain you will get an answer
there.

Fact: OpenSSH 6.2p1 was imported to head/CURRENT on March 22nd, and
6.2p2 was imported to head/CURRENT on May 22nd:

http://svnweb.freebsd.org/base/head/crypto/openssh/ChangeLog

OpenSSH is such an important/key piece of software that, much like
OpenSSL, it is one that does not warrant haste when it comes to getting
MFC'd. If you want something more recent on non-CURRENT, you will
usually be told to run the version from ports.

Typo on my part: this should have read May 17th, as is obvious from
svnweb.

Well, you showed an interest in testing a specific feature of 6.2, so a
recommendation to use the version in ports is perfectly valid. :)

Use the port.

The OpenSSL version in 9-STABLE doesn't have GCM support.
