Hi,

  I recently installed two systems with 4.1-RELEASE and had the unpleasant
suprise of not finding ssh & sshd installed out of the box on them. I
learnt that these utilities (and other crypto-related stuff) are only
found in the CRYPTO distribution set which, due to the fact that I live in
Europe, I legally can't install. Later I cvsupped and rebuilt the system
to 4.1-STABLE with USA_RESIDENT=NO and it installed the ssh utilities.

  Now I have a few questions:

 * What is the legal and correct way to have the ssh and crypto related
   stuff installed somewhat "out of the box" (meaning not to have to
   build them from sources) ?

 * Isn't this situation kind of embarrasing for the "outside of USA and
   Canada" people ? Isn't there a nicer way to please us too, like having
   weak cryto stuff either built in the base system or in a separate
   distribution set ?

 * Is this going to happen until 4.2-RELEASE will be out ?

 Thank you very much,
 Ady (@ady.ro)
