Officially not yet. AFAIK it is still beta code and only the beta testers
are allowed to have it. It was announced at Usenix a few weeks ago. We're
still waiting for it to come out of beta. There was talk about a second
beta but no news from the authors yet.

That could be arranged if you agree not to distribute the code.

It is not yet telnet compatible (i.e. it requires a port for itself,
the protocol is incompatible) but it has strong points (Diffie-Hellman
key exchange with optional mutual authentification, DES/TDES and IDEA
support, "rsh"-style mode with command execution on the remote host,
preservation of $DISPLAY, SecurID/S-key/password authentification --
no clear-text password,...).

It even has a built-in S-key calculator...

Connected to localhost on port 10005.
Using 512 bits modulus, 512 bits secret key
exchanging keys with DH scheme (can be a lengthy process)...
