RSA's Australian deal

[Steve Bellovin]

According to today's Wall Street Journal, RSA is going to market
"compatible technology" developed by Eric Young and Tim Hudson,
via an Australian subsidiary.  This is an end-run around the export
rules, and has already been approved by the U.S. Dept of Commerce.
"The key to that is neither U.S. technology or U.S. personnel could
be involved in making the product", according to DoC.

The article does note the recent Wassenaar Agreement, which might
induce Australia to regulate crypto exports, too.
