I'm pretty sure that the US cryptography thing is a dead duck. Since the US govt. accepted Rjindale as the AES standard the laws have changed and high cryptography no longer has US export restrictions. The linux kernel crypto page says that the crypto patch will be merged into the main kernel at some point due to this law change, so I think that it shouldn't be a problem. - Doug Philip Charles wrote: > On Sun, 13 May 2001, Jeff Bailey wrote: > > > On Mon, May 14, 2001 at 12:28:49AM +0000, Philip Charles wrote: > > > *** > > I'm hoping that for the next CD we have more non-US (We should have > > gnupg, lsh-utils, openssl, w3m-ssl at least, and maybe others).
