Windows Cryptography API - Public Key Authentication extensions

["Murphy, Gearoid P" <gearoid.murphy@xxxxxx>]

Hello

I'm a HP network engineer. I recently modified my local build of libssh (v0.48) with public key authentication a la Windows Cryptography service for use with x509 certificate public keys. HP support engineers depend heavily on usb tokens with x509 certs for authentication across our network infrastructure.

I would like to submit a patch containing the modifications. HP has very specific guidelines on such submissions, so before I commit anything, I'd appreciate any advice you can give me on the process of submitting a patch for approval to your project?

Thank you.
