re-opening the issue with a question in response to sb's remarks :
You personally as an employee and representative of Sun are not authorized, but
what about someone else from the Community with integration and commit
privileges ?
Which bits of the software are forbidden from export ? As you may or may not
know, the export restrictions for embargoed countries only apply to those
particular bits of technology that expressly fall within the embargo's remit.
Other questions :
Is the embargo a pure US sanction or is it supported by a UN resolution ?
The embargo must be identified somewhere as having been passed by Congress or
the US Dept of State - which resolution was involved (date and identification) ?
If the primary servers holding the code were located outside of the US, the
Community could avoid this issue. That probably wouldn't help matters for Sun,
since it might still fall under the aiding and abetting or facilitating aspect
of the embargo. While I can appreciate this, it would be nice to have
clarification on these different points.
