There's some good news on the encryption front at linuxtoday.com

http://linuxtoday.com/stories/15035_flat.html

This:

http://www.epic.org/crypto/export_controls/regs_1_00.html

is the amendment. It appears to make improvements to the original bill (
which ignored open source software ). It seems to state that you can put
crypto software on the internet. I'm still not clear on what's happening
regarding restrictions on key length though.
