Net::SFTP is an implementation of SFTP (SSH File Transfer Protocol),  
versions 1-5. It is dependent upon the Net::SSH library.

This release fixes problems with the implementation of version 4 of  
the SFTP protocol. Specifically:

- “Name” packets were not being parsed correctly
- The implementation of the “open” operation in v4 should have  
been in v5 (v4 uses the same implementation as v1-3)

As more and more SFTP servers begin using versions of the protocol  
greater than 3, more issues may be discovered. Please report them as  
soon as you encounter them. (Net::SFTP was only properly tested with  
SFTP version 3–server implementations of versions greater than 3  
were hard to find at the time.)
