Just curious -- how far did the lawyers go in checking out bouncycastle? Is it literally "don't touch it's deadly" or just "we're not sure so we don't want to touch it"? The BC FAQ says that it's "approved for export" [1]. I know we're not lawyers, so I promise not to take anyone's advice literally, but is anyone more informed on this issue? /Nick [1] http://bouncycastle.org/wiki/display/JA1/Frequently+Asked+Questions#FrequentlyAskedQuestions-9.WhatisBouncyCastle%27sexportclassificationintheUnitedStatesofAmerica%3F --------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe from this list please visit: http://xircles.codehaus.org/manage_email
