The only part of the definition that you cited that does not explicitly involve "crossing the US border in the outward direction" is the part about release to a foreign national, but that part is there because it is presumed that said foreign national will promptly depart for home, taking the "secret" with him across the border. That bit is also undoubtedly unconstitutional. In any case, the rules require contemporaneous notice, not advance notice. I see no way there could be a violation if a non-US admin looks over a source package one day and sends a copy off to /dev/null at the Commerce Dept the next. -- John Hasler -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe".
