Great comments.  The key is "off the shelf".  If it is a 
retail product, then approval seems easy (although every
specific build that changes crypto functions or the way
that crypto functions are called is subject to a new 
approval process).  Otherwise, evidently it is much more
dicy.

... just a developer trying to get along ...

This is verging off-topic for this list, but ...

My experiences are much simler than David's (perhaps because I've been 
doing this since I first inadvertantly posted DES to Usenet in 1986?:)

At my previous company we built an "off the shelf" product that did 
signatures and encryption.  Our product manager found the form, filled 
it in (our crypto all came from openssl), and we got export approval in 
a couple of weeks.
