Q: What will JSSE 1.0 cost?
A: The final release version of the JSSE 1.0 reference implementation binary
code will be free for commercial use and redistribution. See the
license and legal documents for details when you download the code.
Q: Is JSSE under US export control restrictions?
A: Yes, JSSE is export restricted and cannot be shipped outside the United
States and Canada.
We can't advise you on export control issues and therefore recommend that you
consult your own legal counsel.
Please see Roland Jones (roland.jones@sun.com), the JSSE product marketing
manager, for more details regarding redistribution of JSSE.

question regarding the future distribution of applications using the jsse.

>In particular, I am concerned about the licensing requirements for end-user
applications, and my legal duties in safeguarding the RSA patent (until its
expiration) and the U.S. export restriction on cryptography.
