Motivation for this change
The
curve25519-sha256
key exchange method is defined in RFC 8731 that is identical tocurve25519-sha256@libssh.org
. OpenSSH supports the method since version 7.4, released on 2016-12-19. It is literally a violation of the "both in Secure Secure Shell and Mozilla guidelines" rule, but it provides essentially the same but a future-proof default.Also, links to the Mozilla OpenSSH guidelines are updated to refer to the current place.
