--=.1N(UsQI:/UHM:4 Content-Type: text/plain; charset=US-ASCII Content-Transfer-Encoding: 7bit I would suggest that the most salient advice is to read the laws regarding the subject. A lawyer is likely to be quite incapable of operating under the multiple legal modes required: most of them are incompetent in one system. The most useful advice at a technical layer is to aquire the sources from a site outside the US and to not install it anywhere that is under the Ban (say NKorea or Iraq).
