Adam, make a mention when others ask in the future this very same question that the version of decss that is floating around the internet is not able to be included in a distribution due to draconian licensing and laws enforced here in the U.S. I wonder if someone approached the DVD consortium with money and said "I want to license *this* decss code" if they would accept it. Part of the licensing agreement is that you encrypt your decryption key. Once that one company forgot to encrypt their key, the entire algorithm popped wide open. Now that we have the code are we automatically exempted from being able to license it? I wonder... Blue skies...
