The best person on the Net to ask about the ITARs is, IMHO, Lee Tien, the lawyer handling John Gilmore's cryptography-related litigation. Lee can be reached at tien@well.sf.ca.us.
Mr. Tien, I have bothered Mike Godwin and Shari Steele to the point of no return in legalese. (Blame them for pointing me in your direction.) Actually, I'm quite curious of the ITAR restrictions of cryptologic software/hardware legislation currently on the books and the chances of it being scaled back in light of the current "Clipper" fiasco. I'm well aware of the legal provisions within USC Title 18, and the ECPA but have no idea of additional transcripts that exist that the Dept. of State which have been circumscribed to regulate and tariff. Would you be so kind as to enlighten me (us) of the ITAR stuff that many of us have heard so much about? I know Phil Zimmerman has made limited mention of ITAR restrictions, so I think that we need to first lift the veil of ignorance. Thanks for your anticipated response. Cheers.
