Engl2000
Engl2000 is a course at Louisiana State University. Multiple sections of the course exist depending on the semester enrolled. The Course Offerings page allows a user to search for courses and sections available on a semester by semester basis.

Assignment #1 for ENGL2000
The article that I would like to submit for consideration is Microsoft Research. I would initially propose correcting the run on sentence in the lead paragraph and editing it to make it flow more smoothly.


 * Suggested edit:
 * ...Microsoft Research was created in 1991, with the intent to advance state of the art computing and solve difficult world problems through technological innovation in collaboration with academic, government, and industry researchers. The Microsoft Research team employs 1,000 computer scientists, physicists, engineers, and mathematicians which include Turing Award winners, Fields Medal winners, MacArthur Fellows, and Dijkstra Prize winners.

Assignment #2 for ENGL2000
The article that I would like to submit for consideration is CrossFit. The article currently has a banner the states" This article may rely excessively on sources too closely associated with the subject, preventing the article from being verifiable and neutral. Please help improve it by replacing them with more appropriate citations to reliable, independent, third-party sources. (March 2014)" I believe that I may be able to find other more reputable sources further removed from the the original subject to help provide a more objective point of view.

Assignment #3 for ENGL2000
Article Selection I would like to select the article OpenSSH as my article for assignment number three.
 * After my initial reading, this article does have a logical flow; however it is written in a manner that requires a base knowledge of the systems in order to effectively digest. The lead does not appropriately parse the information in all the included sections, but it does give a base level outline of what the software package is.  The lead should also include this statement directly from the OpenSSH Webpage "OpenSSH encrypts all traffic (including passwords) to effectively eliminate eavesdropping, connection hijacking, and other attacks." In my opinion, the major component missing from this article is a practical explanation of how this software is used, delivered in language that is palatable by the lay person.


 * Start of New Lead
 * OpenSSH, also known as OpenBSD Secure Shell, is a project of the OpenBSD team. It was designed as a free version of the SSH network protocol that is commonly used to secure data communications. SSH protocol and software, developed by Tatu Ylönen, are now trademarked and considered proprietary.  SSH was originally developed with a license that allowed other developers or users to fork or create an off-shoot of the software with their own customizations. OpenSSH is a fork of one of those customizations and was first released as part of a unix-like operating system called OpenBSD in 1999. As part of the forking process, OpenSSH was released under a BSD license, an open source license which allows open manipulations and contributions; to which the word open in the name refers. In order to effectively maintain the program, the OpenSSH project is developed under a policy of producing clean and audited code. It is because of this that the OpenSSH developers claim that their application is more secure than the original. Most commonly, 'OpenSSH encrypts all traffic (including passwords) to effectively eliminate eavesdropping, connection hijacking, and other attacks. Additionally, OpenSSH provides secure tunneling capabilities and several authentication methods, and supports all SSH protocol versions.' It is not a single computer program, but rather a suite of programs in the OpenBSD operating system that offers an alternative to unencrypted network communication protocols like FTP and Rlogin. While OpenSSH is not actively maintained for operating systems other than OpenBSD, a dedicated team occasionally releases a version that can be ported or used in an operating system other than the one it was originally intended for. This has allowed for OpenSSH and its derivatives to account for an almost 88% market share as of July of 2008. 


 * Version 2 of New Lead
 * OpenSSH, also known as OpenBSD Secure Shell, is a suite of network-level security tools based on the SSH protocol which help to secure network communications via the encryption of network traffic over multiple authentication methods and by providing secure tunneling capabilities. It was designed as a free version of the SSH network protocol that is commonly used to secure data communications and is a project of the OpenBSD team.
