Maxima license restrictions from DOE-MACSYMA

Within the company I work for there is interest in using the Maxima
software, however the web site identifies Maxima as being derived from
DOE-MACSYMA software.

 

While the Maxima software is released under the GNU GPL license, there
is a reference in the original permission from 1998
<http://maxima.sourceforge.net/i/authorization-letter.png>;  to release
the DOE-MACSYMA software:

"Distribution of such derivative works is subject to the U.S. Export
Administration Regulations (Title 15 CFR 768-799), which implements the
Export Administration Act of 1979, as amended, and/or the International
Traffic in Arms Regulation, of 12-6-84, (Title 22 CFR 121-130), which
implements the Arms Export Control Act (22 U.S.C. 2728) and may require
license for export."

Is there a contact who could provide advice on the export restrictions
before we begin using the software?

 

thanks Tony
