Jacob S. Barrett commented on GEODE-2303:
-----------------------------------------

While it is true that we don't ship OpenSSL we are dependent on it for SSL 
connections to the server. It is also true that we don't currently link 
directly to OpenSSL but we link to ACE_SSL which in turn is dynamically linked 
to OpenSSL. What this means for including license statements is an exercise for 
the lawyers but should be similar in nature to Apache httpd. Apache httpd 
project does not call out OpenSSL in its LICENSE or NOTICE files.

In my previous experiences any use of crypto, directly or indirectly, requires 
export control. We should be able to just consider ourselves in the Geode 
Project ECCN.
