Wolfgang:

We are reviewing the export restrictions for JCE 1.2
currently in place in light of the changed export rules for
cryptography recently announced by the U.S. Government.

One of the key changes is the following:

"The new rules eliminate many restrictions on selling powerful
computer data scrambling products to subsidiaries of U.S. corporations.
In addition, they relax controls for encryption products to health and
medical organizations in 46 countries for almost all foreign subsidiaries
of U.S. companies."

I think this change will not apply to your company, however,
since (from what I can tell) you are not a foreign subsidiary
of a U.S. company.
