Otherwise, the big problem with SSH is there are much less available
libraries, compared to TLS.
I think the picture may have changed a bit in the last few years. Thereappears to be mature libraries available for C (libssh), Java (JSCH), Go(x/crypto/ssh) and Python, probably many others.
It would be nice to re-use my identities and trusts that I use for ssh, gitand gerrit for gemini (and other protocols too) with my own per-hostconfigurations. Another interesting side effect of using ssh as thetransport is that you could use ssh to script interactions with a geminiserver because the protocol is so simple, no need to implement geminiversions of curl to do that. Similarly, setting up a gemini server could beas simple as setting up ssh with a shell script to follow the protocol andecho out the page for a given URI.-------------- next part --------------An HTML attachment was scrubbed...URL: <https://lists.orbitalfox.eu/archives/gemini/attachments/20210709/25165d7f/attachment.htm>
