Tripped across this yesterday (while waiting for a firmware upgrade for my Qualcomm phone that gave it RSA capability!). http://www.ottawacitizen.com/national/000405/3877481.html Essentially, the U.S. is getting paranoid about the fact that the Canadian ECL isn't exactly the same as the U.S. Canada appears to be yielding to pressure from the U.S. It's not clear whether this affects the exemptions that Canada has traditionally had for public-domain and "mass market" (their term) software. -- ---------------------------------------------------------------------- Marcus Leech Mail: Dept 8M70, MS 012, FITZ Systems Security Architect Phone: (ESN) 393-9145 +1 613 763 9145 Security and Internet Solutions Fax: (ESN) 395-1407 +1 613 765 1407 Nortel Networks [EMAIL PROTECTED] -----------------Expressed opinions are my own, not my employer's------
