RE: Export Classification

2009-08-16 Thread Jerome Louvel
Hi Jennifer and Rob,

 

This is an unexpected topic for me indeed :-) Still, it looks like something
important for US-based Restlet users so I’ve created a task for this:

 

“Add export classification wiki page”

http://restlet.tigris.org/issues/show_bug.cgi?id=875

 

Any volunteer to write this page? :-)

 

Best regards,
Jerome Louvel

Just offering an unofficial opinion in case Jerome looks at this and thinks
silly Americans, what do they mean?  I was actually going to suggest you
look to IBM for this info and then I saw your reply address  :-)

Here is what ASF did to document the Export Classification stuff; we could
create a similar page on Restlet Wiki somewhere:

http://www.apache.org/licenses/exports/

The relevant bit is this: Products classified as ECCN 5D002 (crypto and
users of crypto), should follow the TSU exception in EAR 740.139(e), which
applies to software containing or designed for use with encryption software
that is publicly available as open source.

Since this horse has been out of the barn for a long time, maybe the present
administration can make this software-as-a-munition nonsense materially go
away.  Here's hoping.
