Ask HN: What are the U.S. requirements for releasing OSS that uses encryption?
I want to release a terminal based text editor I wrote, on GitHub, that uses another open source library that implements AES-CBC 256 bit encryption. The library it specifically uses is https:&#x2F;&#x2F;github.com&#x2F;kkAyataka&#x2F;plusaes<p>I&#x27;m wondering, what are any United States legal requirements for releasing my text editor as open source software?<p>My text editor only uses existing available open source software and does not implement any new cryptographic algorithm, but based on my reading of United States export restrictions I&#x27;m not entirely certain if there&#x27;s reporting requirements I must follow. To clarify, I don&#x27;t need to release this, I just wanted to contribute something back to the community that&#x27;s been useful to me.
