Wanted to enable SSL in a freeware dll for MySQL i'm working on. However, the OpenSSL website had this message:

This software package uses strong cryptography, so even if it is created, maintained and distributed from liberal countries in Europe (where it is legal to do this), it falls under certain export/import and/or use restrictions in some other parts of the world.

please remember that export/import and/or use of strong cryptography software, providing cryptography hooks or even just communicating technical details about cryptography software is illegal in some parts of the world. so, when you import this package to your country, re-distribute it from there or even just email technical suggestions or even source patches to the author or other people you are strongly advised to pay close attention to any export/import and/or use laws which apply to you. the authors of openssl are not liable for any violations you make here. so be careful, it is your responsibility.

So i'm living in the Netherlands, will I get in trouble if I compile OpenSSL with this MySQL plugin for GameStudio and distribute it as freeware from my website located in America? Must I warn people "from lesser liberal countries" not to use or they get arrested??
