    What if you aren't using Java encryption APIs? The only thing I plan
    to add is modeler conveniences such that you can create your own
    encryption facilities. (Someone can already write this for
    themselves, too.) I'm not planning on checking in actual encryption
    code (I can't imagine ROT13 would be considered encryption these
    days). I thought "product distributions that contain or are
    'specially designed' to use cryptography" meant Cayenne as shipped
    would be actively using encryption as part of its operation (such as
    requiring OpenSSL for something). Of course, I'm not a lawyer ...

    Thanks,
