OpenJDK is a minor update.  OpenSSH was previously available until it
wasn't until it became available again with the new version just now.
So it could be regarded as new.  And it's a major paradigm shift that
replaces a proprietary SSH service whose algorithms were always
out-of-date and that used a quirky scp server protocol that didn't match
what most scp clients do.  I'm looking forward to (at last) being able
to try this.

Maybe the good news is both the specifics updates/upgrades and the fact
that they roll out on a regular basis?
