Ada and custom computer chips export control regulations fall under the juristicon of Office of Munitions Control, State Dept. 2. They have an information package which I have ordered by calling (703)235-9770 and requesting it. Delivery is supposed to be about one week. No charge. 3. I was told about the package by a lady who answered (703)235-9773. She was sure that Munitions Control was the licensing authority for Ada and custom chips and "Yes, she had heard of Ada.". 4. I was given the Munitions Control telephone number by the Dept. of Commerce person in Orlando Florida who said that first I must determine if the licensing authority was Dept of Commerce or Munitions Control and if Munitions denied having control then Dept. of Commerce would have it by default. He assures me that he isn't giving me the bureacratic run-around. I asked if the penalties maight be less than the cost of the phone calls and he assured me that I didn't even want to know what the penalties are. I can envision someone in the middle of a desert on a dark night selling Ada code to an oil shiek whose cruise missile is malfunctioning. Maybe James Bond instantiating the correct generic as the countdown readout reaches 007. regards, sam harbaugh --------------------- ------
