I am Anchit Jain, Computer Science undergraduate from BITS PILANI, India. 
I am interested in pursuing SSH Service project.

I have some experience in Socket Programming and Network Protocol development in C. Some of my work could be seen at https://github.com/anchitjain1234.

In past, I have implemented some basic network services like TFTP protocol and some minor part of FTP client. 

Regarding the project :- Would this project require a new SSH Server to be written from scratch or to be build upon some existing codebase like Apache Mina etc.?

I would request potential mentors to guide me for the same.
