All binary products which contain encryption code must continue to comply with 
US export regulations.  

In this case, the strong-crypto version of PSM for Communicator has been granted 
retail approval.

That means that the Seamonkey beta will ship with strong-crypto.  There will be 
no weak-crypto version.

Marking bug as FIXED.

Changed QA contact to Cindy Roberts.  
Cindy, could you reassign this to the right person to verify this?

This is not fixed.  All software that we ship goes out with a commercial license 
that governs the use of the software.  An example of this can be seen by going 
to about:license in 4.x.  I need to get this boilerplate for the beta.

Reopening.

do we have strong crypto in the seamonkey builds right now?

the win32 installer is named seamonkey32e with 'e' historically
being the designation for export level/56bit security.

Is it/should it be our convention to use e for strong security now?

oops.  My bad.  I confused this with another bug that says we need a License for
beta.  We still need that.  This one, however, is fixed as Bob says.  Marking fixed.
