On Josh Osborne's RSA-perl T-shirt venture,
I don't know about the rest of you, but I didn't realise from Joel's last post to the list that he was taking orders for then. I guess that's as close to an announcement as he's going to make. I just checked his netstuff web page, and he's taking orders now!
Check out:

(this is referenced from Joel's netstuff page under currently available items:

From the Joel's web page:
DEADLINE TO ORDER: All orders for these shirts must be postmarked by June 1, 1995.
Also my page on perl-rsa is:
http://dcs.ex.ac.uk/~aba/perl-rsa.html
I'll be away from my mail for the rest of this week, so maybe someone can post this info to all the crypto groups...

Has anyone received a shirt from Joel?
He made an announce on the netstuff mailing list a couple of weeks ago, and also made a statement about the reasons for delays on the group alt.fan.joel-furr, here's what he said ... (darn it's expired from news spool), what he said was that he hoped to get the all of the shirts shipped by the end of this month I think. Don't quote me on that cos it's from memory. But basically his printer moved, causing 1.5 months delay, and he got more orders than anticipated 1500 would you believe! Ah... there's more on his current netstuff page: http://www.danger.com/netstuff-current.html
o Perl/RSA T-Shirts -- Second Batch. Note: The first batch should be done very soon and all 1,500 shirts will be shipped as fast as possible. Some one-time delays took place that could not be avoided and all the shirts should be shipped by the end of August unless something awful happens.

Many thanks,
Don't know about Joel. Might have heard one complaint over on alt.security.pgp a month or so ago. I just got 7 perl-rsa T-Shirts from "wepinsto" (http://colossus.net/wepinsto/). These were for myself, my youngest son (16), my brother, and four friends who asked me to order for them. They look great! Almost as great as the looks you GET when people see them wondering "what the *&*r!". I just have one problem though... If these things are classified as a "munition" aka a "weapon" by da fed's how does that affect us down here in good old Georgia where our legislature has passed a law making it a crime to be in posession of a weapon anywhere within a hundred yards or so of school property. This is rather relevant for my teenager! The school councilers looked real confused and said "Dah... We don't know!" I'm suppose to talk to the man "in charge of discipline" for an opinion on this. As I told someone else on another mailing list, this sounds REAL stupid but all it takes is one idiot (and we have a plentiful supply of idiots down here in Georgia) with a wild hair and students get expelled for silverware sitting on a car seat, tools such as tire irons (no they weren't threating someone with one), or cultural and cerimonial artifacts.

Strong crypto is considered to be a munition *for purposes of U.S. export controls*. With respect to possession within the U.S., there aren't any laws stopping you from waving strong cryptography around wherever you like (at least, not yet). -Futplex
