There were similar discussions for mozilla and linux. I don't know more than what's in the articles. Perhaps there are people in the know on this list. Hope this is not too irrelevant.

I am still searching for information on the internet about Postgres
Export review by US Commerce department.

I did see an early email posted on POstgres mailing list about ECCN
number of Postgres and saw the response debating if Postgres should be
considered a US product.  But I did not see any conclusion to that
question, namely if POstgres has an ECCN number and if Postgres is a US
product.

Thanks!

The Debian project submits all software it distributes to said
department, so one can be fairly assured that they have heard of
PostgreSQL, but how that affects what you are distributing I'm not
sure.
