irchat seems to contain strong crypto (idea.el). [1]
I thought Steve was already actively ignoring stupid US laws regarding
crypto export. I'm not sure if the intent was civil disobedience or
just the assumption that no one would really do anything about it.
The former seems like a good idea. I don't think the latter be a good
assumption on which to base such decisions.
[1] idea is also patented.
But implementations may be freely distributed for non-commercial use,
right?
