from where? is it physically located in the USofA or somewhere outside
those boundaries? that's what i was looking at... if GPG were to be hatched
and travel into the USofA, it may be against the law for a USofA system to
further distribute it to locations outside the USofA or to even allow it to
be available for download from the web, ftp and telnet (as my site does all
files except beta area stuff it receives via file distribution)

agreed there... so the primary concern is if GPG source or binary can be
distributed from within the USofA to locations outside the USofA... what
clinton did, allows that, IIUC... however, this homeland security mess may
override that in some way ;-(
