This rapidly becomes a philisophical/political question, but personally I don't see why stupid laws in *any* contry should be our problem, as long as those providing access to the sdk (CPAN mirrors I presume) aren't violating the laws of the country in which they operate. Caveat downloader. :) That is, if exporting is OK, leave the users of the sdk to deal with the legal implications of its use. We should just warn them that restrictions on use *may* exist. -- Stephen "Farcical aquatic ceremonies are no basis for a system of government!"
