I honestly haven't followed it that closely.  It's something along the
lines of it's clear that we can distribute _source_ for strong encryption
software from within the US, but it's not clear that we can distribute
_binaries_ of strong encryption software.  I personally think that's
ridiculous, but some of the developers involved with creating the binary
distributions just felt that this was the safer path until the government
makes it clearer to us what's allowed and what's not.  Search the archives
for [EMAIL PROTECTED], it's in there somewhere.
