John,
I support you totally in this idea. Would it also not be a good idea
to find a "friend" in a non-Wassenaar country and use them as a
repository for all crypto software? They could print CDs and mail
them abroad (because, of course, export from that country would not be
controlled and import to (most other) countries is also not
controlled).
Subsequent developments to existing packages (PGP, ScramDisk etc)
could not be exported legally - but some nutter is bound to export ANY
piece of software out of country (in coffee beans shipments or
something :-)).
I would offer to be such a repository - but live in the restrictive
and oppressive UK :-(

Sam Simpson
