John,

Have you heard about this PECSENC recommendation cited
by Dorothy Denning? I've written the PECSENC administrator
about getting the recommendation. That's Jason Gomberg
<jgomberg@bxa.doc.gov>. Could you try from your end?

Thanks, John

The President's Export Council Subcommittee on Encryption, of which
I am a member, recommended something to that effect, but I do not know
if the Administration will adopt that recommendation.  The next
meeting is September 29 and perhaps we will learn something then.

I have heard in a couple of areas that the US may be considering easing
export 
controls whereby crypto can be exported up to the same strength that is 
commercially available in other parts of the world.

Does anyone know if there is any truth in this?

Jeremy
