GENERAL TECHNOLOGY AND SOFTWARE NOTES

1. General Technology Note.  The export of "tech nology" that is
"required" for the "development", "production", or "use" of items
on the Commerce Control List is controlled according to the
provisions in each Category.

"Technology" "required" for the "development", "production", or
"use" of a controlled product remains controlled even when
applicable to a product controlled at a lower level.

License Exception TSU is available for "technology" that is the
minimum necessary for the installation, operation, maintenance
(checking), and repair of those products that are eligible for
License Exceptions or that are exported under a license.

	N.B.:  This does not allow release under a License
	Exception of the repair "technology" controlled by
	1E002.e, 1E002.f, 7E003, or 8E002.a.

	N.B.: The 'minimum necessary' excludes "development" or
	"production" technology and permits "use" technology only
	to the extent "required" to ensure safe and efficient use
	of the product. Individual ECCNs may further restrict
	export of "minimum necessary" information.

2.  General Software Note.  License Exception TSU ("mass market"
software) is available to all destinations, except Cuba, Iran,
Iraq, Libya, North Korea, Sudan, and Syria, for release of
software that is generally available to the public by being:

	a.  Sold from stock at retail selling points, without
	restriction, by means of:

		1.  Over the counter transactions;

		2.  Mail order transactions; or

		3.  Telephone call transactions; and

	b.  Designed for installation by the user without further
	substantial support by the supplier.

ù	Note: The General Software Note does not apply to
"software" controlled by Category 5 - part 2 ("Information
Security").  For "software" controlled by Category 5, part 2, see
Supplement No. 1 to part 774, Category 5, part 2, Note 3 -
