&gt;
&gt;DES is essentially 56-bit, since the last 8 are computed from the first 56.
&gt;I think you still do need a license but if you can prove that DES is all
&gt;you use it's readily granted.  Or at least more readily granted than if you
&gt;use anything else.  But for a hobby project this is still going to be
&gt;hellishly expensive.  I misremembered its exportability.

&gt;Or, better still: find someone outside the States (and not in France, North
&gt;Korea, Iraq, Libya, or China) to write your crypto code, as a plug-in DLL.
&gt;Yeah, it complicates the downloading a lot, but it's better than a
&gt;mandatory 31-41 month federal prison sentence.

What's the big deal with encryption not being able to be exported? Does
the government think noone outside the US is smart enought to think up
some good encryption on their own?
