Caveat Emptor: IANAL.

As I understand it, the master servers are in Canada, meaning export
cryptography restrictions aren't applicable. If that's your concern,
then basically your answer is it's perfectly safe to go ahead.=20

(Then again, I may be thinking of the OpenBSD project servers...) =20

Licencing would almost certainly NOT be an issue.
If deRaadt has an issue then we'd soon know I'm sure ;)

Just as an aside, are you guys still not supporting lzma in bsdtar?
Because if the reasons are the same as the last time I got in touch with
you, this may interest you...=20

meaning there is now a library you can dynamically link to at least for
the purposes of decompression.
