	What type of questions can we legally answer?  Certainly, I
would assume that it would be reasonable to answer a question  based
off the RFC or other public documentation.  I would feel uncomfortable
telling someone outside the US where to find Kerberos.  

	I tend to ignore most support-related questions from outside
the US.  However, is it reasonable to acknowledge bug reports ?  I
assume it is reasonable to fix the bugs.  I also assume it would be a
potential problem to send patches outside the US.  (BTW, are there any
people on krb5-bugs who are outside the US?)
