I am trying to finish the IP clearance and lookimng at TWILL-28, the crypto
audit. I read the guide at http://www.apache.org/dev/crypto.html and I am
quite sure what to do.

Twill does not explicitly contain cryptographic code, but

   - It uses java.util.UUID.randomUUID() to generate random ids. This
   method uses "a cryptographically strong pseudo random number generator."
   Since it is part of Java, I assume that is nothing to worry about.
   - It uses Hadoop, which uses encryption. The only thing twill does here
   is store delegation tokens on HDFS and read them back.

So is there anything to do for this? Do I need to add Twill to the export
list at http://www.apache.org/licenses/exports/ ? Do we need to include a
crypto notice in our README? It is not clear to me after reading the
document.

Thanks -Andreas.
