that's no problem. The commit message states:

	Ruben Garcia Azuara, a Telefonica I+D SAU worker, deliver a patch to
	add OpenSSH parameters to libssh.

We have a copyright policy:

The developers of libssh have a policy of asking for contributions to be made 
under the personal copyright of the contributor, instead of a corporate 
copyright.

There are some reasons for the establishment of this policy:

    * Individual copyrights make copyright registration in the US a simpler 
process.
    * If libssh is copyrighted by individuals rather than corporations, 
decisions regarding enforcement and protection of copyright will, more likely, 
be made in the interests of the project, and not in the interests of any 
corporation’s shareholders.
    * If we ever need to relicense a portion of the code contacting 
individuals for permission to do so is much easier than contacting a company

So I have to ask if you contribute this personally, else we can't accept the 
patch.
