Hi Satoshi

We have a bunch of ports in the ports tree that are export restricted
because they have cryptographic code in them.

I am currently running a FreeBSD CVS tree that is dedicated to Crypto
code in FreeBSD. (cvsup://internat.freebsd.org/home/ncvs)

I propose that it is a good idea to make a new category of "crypto"
in the ports tree, and move this over to the international site;
Those folks who have an interest in his software can continue to
maintain it (I'll make sure this works), and this way we can make
actual packages of this software for people (read "lusers" ;-) [1])
to install by the usual (sysinstall?) means.

I cannot make this work for 3.0, but for later releases, this is
easy to set up.

Suggestions? Flames? Cash?
