+-----------------------------
+
+   This distribution includes cryptographic software.  The country in 
+   which you currently reside may have restrictions on the import, 
+   possession, use, and/or re-export to another country, of 
+   encryption software.  BEFORE using any encryption software, please 
+   check your country's laws, regulations and policies concerning the
+   import, possession, or use, and re-export of encryption software, to 
+   see if this is permitted.  See <http://www.wassenaar.org/> for more
+   information.
+
+   The U.S. Government Department of Commerce, Bureau of Industry and
+   Security (BIS), has classified this software as Export Commodity 
+   Control Number (ECCN) 5D002.C.1, which includes information security
+   software using or performing cryptographic functions with asymmetric
+   algorithms.  The form and manner of this Apache Software Foundation
+   distribution makes it eligible for export under the License Exception
+   ENC Technology Software Unrestricted (TSU) exception (see the BIS 
+   Export Administration Regulations, Section 740.13) for both object 
+   code and source code.
+
+   The following provides more details on the included cryptographic
+   software:
+
+       Apache Commons OpenPGP interfaces with the Bouncy Castle Crypto
+       APIs to provide the digital signing and encryption of messages
+       using the OpenPGP standard.
+
+       Apache Commons OpenPGP does not distribute the Bouncy Castle
+       library or source code.
