An insecure version of secure shell doesn't "work".

  It's ok for people to have different definitions of things

    People also have different ideas of what "unmaintained" means. The earlier poster was likely highlighting the common misconception that software must be constantly changed in order to be considered maintained. Personally, if something is called secure shell and it's not secure, then it's broken. Maybe I'm weird.

      The definition of maintained in indeed subjective, so I don't think it can even be called a misconception. People just disagree on what it means, but there can't be a single right or wrong answer. Some people prefer secure software to be regularly updated and audited and won't trust other programs. I think it's a perfectly reasonable position, but I also know not everyone will think the same way.
