Thread: export control information of postgresql-8.2-504.jdbc3.jar
To whom it may concern,
Could you please indicate me what is the Export Control Classification Number (ECCN) of your software: postgresql-8.2-504.jdbc3.jar that I do not manage to find on your website.
Thanks for your prompt answer.

Hello, We are an open source project. We have no such number. JD -- PostgreSQL.org Major Contributor Command Prompt, Inc: http://www.commandprompt.com/ - 509.416.6579 Consulting, Training, Support, Custom Development, Engineering http://twitter.com/cmdpromptinc | http://identi.ca/commandprompt
> We are an open source project. We have no such number. That's not strictly accurate. I'd better put this up as a FAQ item, since this is the 3rd or fourth time it's come up. Mr. Didier: PostgreSQL 8.2 and 8.3 for Solaris only received an export control number through Sun Microsystems in 2008. Succeeding versions of PostgreSQL have not received any such number to our knowledge. Please note two important facts: one, that the US Dept. of Commerce only gives export control numbers to specific binaries and not to source code. Second, that PostgreSQL is not a product of the USA; our developers are all over the world and even our hosted servers are primarily in Canada, Panama and Europe. As a European company, I do not believe that Airbus needs be concerned with export control numbers for community open source PostgreSQL. The specific software you ask about, the JDBC driver, does not contain any encryption software; it relies on the encryption supplied by other packages on the host operating system, and on encryption supplied by the PostgreSQL server packages. As such, it does not require an export control number as far as we are aware. If your company attorneys find otherwise, please notify us so that we may give a more informed response to future inquries. I am not an attorney and that none of the above constitutes legal advice. --Josh Berkus PostgreSQL Core Team
