Those algorithms will be removed in the next release. The algorithms in question are: NewHope, ThreeBears, MQDSS, and qTesla. These algorithms are considered deprecated within OQS-OpenSSH will receive no updates after this release. diff --git a/version.h b/version.h index 872acafd8b3b..99b5b3a6388a 100644 --- a/version.h +++ b/version.h @@ -1,6 +1,6 @@ /* $OpenBSD: version.h,v 1.83 2018/10/10 16:43:49 deraadt Exp $ */ -#define SSH_VERSION "OQS-OpenSSH_7.9-2020-07_" +#define SSH_VERSION "OQS-OpenSSH_7.9-2020-08_" #define SSH_PORTABLE "p1" #define SSH_RELEASE SSH_VERSION SSH_PORTABLE
