the jobs page on azarius.net states that "We currently don't think we need anyone" and when i have sent a quick email (a month ago) if there is a position or not, never got a reply...

how is SSH a fiasco? i'd love to read more about that.

"approximately the same security track record as SSL"? i'd say heartbleedable (openssl ssl) vs not heartbleedable (openssh) would be a rather incorrect approximation.

also, a messaging system could be tunneled through ssh.
