We want to be sure to pick an algorithm that is
legally unencumbered in BOTH directions.  -- NB

Is there something available to further explain this statement?  It
is apparently a limitation put on by IETF.  It seems to be getting
in the way of specifying the system.  Has FSF-itis invaded the IETF?

For the purpose of building products it seems that whether something
is `legally encumbered' is not an issue, the licensing terms are 
the issue.
