And thus it begins... I think it's a bad idea to provoke the TLAs like this, but I suppose it's inevitable.
Why is it a bad idea? If you don't do it, you support the ITAR by your lack of action! Every day that you don't export strong crypto you assist the enemy.
(But doesn't anyone use Macs or Suns?)
Mac download didn't work yesterday. The download page doesn't say if the Solaris versions are for Sparc or Intel (they are different and incompatible binaries, aren't they?).
By the way, is it possible to get a certificate for the Fast Track 128 bit servers outside of north america?
Why would you want one when the source for Apache-SSL is available?
Just for fun. To show the TLAs what complete morons they are...
Besides, it's a Serious Copyright Violation, said with minimal irony. This whole thing isn't Netscape's fault; in fact, they're doing their best to be the good guys.
Do you Seriously Believe that Netscape would prefer foreigners to develop and use competing products? Of course not. They are probably secretly applauding the brave exporters.
