Hi folks,
we (well, Scott and me) have a long running thread regarding ECCN export
code for Fulcrum/Turbine
1) fulcrum-crypto (more or less accidently) used the cryptix library
2) fulcrum-yaafi supports decryption of strongly encrypted configuration
files
3) fulcrum-pbe supports strong encryption/decryption of files
In short all the projects were using "symmetric algorithm employing a
key length exceeding 56 bits" and/or "were designed to work with strong
cryptographic libraries".
Requiring a ECCN export code is not really a good thing therefore
ad 1) I kicked out the cryptix dependency and replaced it with Apache code
ad 2+3) I'm working on changing the exposed interfaces and underlying
implementation to ensure that only DES can be used (56 bit key length).
As a matter of fact strong encryption was never used but was available
through the exposed interfaces.
When those changes are completed and releases we don't need a ECCN code
for any Fulcrum component. And then we should some Turbine stuff ....
the crowd is screaming for it ... :-)
Cheers,
Siegfried Goeschl
