Would someone from outside the US try to download the above file?
It would be, at least, amusing if an Air Force site were in violation
of the ITAR (their README notwithstanding).

Hurm -- if Phil Karn and I knowingly allow it to remain there, that puts
us in the same position as Phil Zimmermann, right?  Oh -- except that our
offenses may already be beyond the statute of limitations.

I would expect that as the folks responsible for the FTP site,
you could drag the USAF into the lawsuit as a co-defendant, then get
the suit against you dropped because of the statue of limitations,
leaving the AG investigating the Air Force. :)
