> Hi - apologies for finding this..
> I just noticed  on 
> http://www.apache.org/licenses/exports/   
> includes US export classified tools from ASF:
> Apache HttpComponents Core 4.0 and later
> Apache HttpComponents Client 4.0 and later
> Apache Hadoop 17.0 and later
> See also:
> http://www.apache.org/dev/crypto.html#faq-manyproducts
> We redistribute Apache HTTP Components in the Jena and Fuseki binary 
> distributions. We don't distribute Hadoop - we only link to it from Elephas.
> Reading ASF's FAQ it is not clear if we would need to be listed just from 
> having a <dependency> on such a classified item.
> Would we therefore also need to also declare Jena as classified? Or is the 
> transitivity broken because Jena only use the encryption (e.g. access 
> https:// JSON-LD contexts)? 
> (This transitivity thing could mean anyone in the US distributing software 
> using Jena would be US Export regulated. I hope I am wrong.. worth checking 
> with LEGAL I think)
> BTW this was discussed in 2011 - but I believe we since removed BouncyCastle 
> dependency:
