Sofar no one answered this mail... Does US crytopgraphy export restrictions
apply to both version of JSSE, or only to domestic version ? And do these
restictions apply everywhere, or only for US-based download location ?
Said otherwise, can jpackage project (jpackage.sourceforge.net) provide JSSE
global version packages, as any other Sun java API packages, eventually only
on non-US mirrors, or is it a special case ?

the restrictions apply if the distributor is US based or site is in US. In
your case I assume sourceforge is US based so unless you have all the proper
paperwork I doubt they will be able to distribute - even on non-US mirrors.

The latest version of JSSE complies with US restrictions for most countries.
However, US export law forbids ANY type of encryption to certain countries
(mostly known for supporting or allowing terrorist activity).

It is a special case, as certain countries are not allowed to get ANY type
of US encryption technologies.

Crypto is different because of US export laws. The Sun redistribution
licenses for JSSE have the same basic terms as the redistribution licenses
for the other Java APIs (see the license you had to click through to
download it for details.)
