Re: [Sshkeychain-developers] Overhaul

[Andre-John M. <and...@gm...>]

Given the two divergent needs, would it make sense to separate the  
functionality
into two separate, but complimentary, applications? The idea would be  
to allow
both applications to develop the strengths, without getting held back  
the other.

One application suite that might be worth looking at for ideas is  
"Putty", on
the MS-Windows side, with its pageant.exe and puttygen.exe tools.
