Thanks for posting this URL Peter. Of particular note is the heading:
> 43. Other goods as follows:
An anonymous opinion from inside the Defence Dept holds that electronic
bits on a wire do not constitute goods, and as a result if you ship
electronically, you are not subject to the regulations. If you ship a
CD or floppy or other physical media containing software, you violate the
regulations.
I'll add this to the SSLeay legality FAQ - standard disclaimers apply
of course, obtain professional legal advice before exporting SSLeay.
