I guess I should look again, but I *thought* our licenses explicitly excepted use of "US-Only" software (defined in the license) from the standard exclusions. I think the attys lifted some of the definitions straight from ITAR and may have quoted 22USC. Maybe we screwed up and got the wrong license in the beta and missed the check. I don't know. I'll look. *sigh* As far as company policy goes, it's a good bet that we won't willingly break any laws. Licensing export-restricted software to a "foreign person" (includes companies, etc) without a particular export license would probably be a mistake which would get corrected quickly. We have made some mistakes. Occasional known distribution errors have occured, and in each case we do what the law says: notify ODTC, and do whatever we can to clean up. Nothing big and nasty has come up and I think ODTC has been fine with us. To my knowledge, every cleanup attempt has been met with cooperation from all hands involved. -- Tom Paquin Netscape Communications Corp about:paquin
