The reason I asked this question is I don't see any crypto-related jars in
the binay distribution of Accumulo
and I don't think our source contains any cryptographic software. Does
anyone know of any case where
we include cryptographic software in the source or binary distribution?

While Accumulo can be used with crypto libraries to encrypt data at rest,
it looks like we don't distribute
any cryptographic software so I would think the disclaimer could be
removed.
