Ahh, but it's not *you* who's putting the restrictions on your software, but the U.S. government. As far as I know (not that I'm a lawyer, or anything) the U.S. govt. doesn't care what your license says --if it's strong crypto, it's not supposed to be exported. The license is probably irrelevant, as far as import/export is concerned. Derek Atkins wrote:
The big issue I see with GPL and Crypto software is that with the GPL you cannot add any redistribution restrictions. The problem is that due to the United States export rules, I cannot export Crypto software, which means I must legally put a restriction on any Crypto code I write. But, this is a "further restriction" as far as the GPL is concerned. This, in turn, means I cannot use the GPL for Crypto software.
