Okay, but don't absorb *too* many changes.

A *source* release must be source only. Third party jars aren't source,
so shouldn't be included. They are fine in a binary release.

That would be a reasonable thing for the build script in the src

that to happen, I don't see it as an issue.

The first would be valid for code written elsewhere, and the latter for
code being maintained here. Which are they?

The ECCN stuff is for 'exporting encryption'. If we release a
convenience binary, then as far as the US govt is concerned, we need to
do the ECCN stuff.
