This is a new libssh release which fixes important bugs and adds some nice new features. We have rewritten the poll(2)-emulation and on Windows we check for WSAPoll() on runtime now.
If you are new to libssh read the API reference how to get started. Please join our mailing list or visit our irc channel if you have questions.
You can download libssh 0.4.3 here. For Windows binaries we suggest to use the MSVC and MinGW binaries from the KDE Windows project here. Packages for Fedora are available here and for openSUSE here.
