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:

- This software uses OpenSSL to enable TLS-encrypted connections,
  generate keys for asymmetric cryptography, and generate and
  verify signatures using those keys.
- This software uses Java SE Security libraries including the
  Java Secure Socket Extension (JSSE), Java Generic Security Service
  (JGSS), and Java Authentication and Authorization APIs (JAAS)
  to provide secure authentication and TLS-protected transport.
