Apologies for the premature mail.

Hello all,

Please test the mosh 1.2.3 release candidate, to be released in the next
week:

      https://github.com/downloads/keithw/mosh/mosh-1.2.2.95rc1.tar.gz

This makes a number of improvements to mosh 1.2.2, summarized below:

        * Security improvements:
                * Use OpenSSL AES implementation (reduces possibility of
timing leakage)
                * Don't let bad server dictate IP (Felix Groebert)

        * New features:
                * Client hops ports to survive challenging client-side
firewall
                * Server stops sending to save client power (Daniel Drown)
                * Set DiffServ code point and ECN-capable (Dave Täht)
                * Slow down if explicit congestion notification received
                * Warn about unattached Mosh sessions on login
                * Compatible with KDE konsole (uses BEL to terminate OSC)
                * Improved heuristic about color of predicted characters

        * Bug fixes:
                * Improved performance on systems with expensive time
                * No longer choke on "ffff::" address for hosts with IPv6

        * Platform support:
                * Build on Solaris and IllumOS (Timo Sirainen, Ira Cooper)
                * Build on ARM with gcc 4.7 (Alexander Chernyakhovsky)

        * Licensing changes:
                * Allow distribution on Apple App Stores
                * Allow linking with OpenSSL

Thanks very much,
Keith
for the Mosh project
