US Space Policy - Export Restrictions

There is a change regarding Effective Export Policies in the latest US National Space Policy released June 28. Collaboration between Radio Amateurs on amateur satellites has been greatly impeded by US Federal Government restrictions.

The 2006 Space Policy said
"Exports of sensitive or advanced technical data, systems, technologies and components, shall be approved only rarely, on a case-by-case basis."
but the 2010 version appears slightly less restrictive saying:

Effective Export Policies

Consistent with the U.S. export control review, departments and agencies should seek to enhance the competitiveness of the U.S. space industrial base while also addressing national security needs.

The United States will work to stem the flow of advanced space technology to unauthorized parties. Departments and agencies are responsible for protecting against adverse technology transfer in the conduct of their programs.

The United States Government will consider the issuance of licenses for space-related exports on a case-by-case basis, pursuant to, and in accordance with, the International Traffic in Arms Regulations, the Export Administration Regulations, and other applicable laws, treaties, and regulations. Consistent with the foregoing space-related items that are determined to be generally available in the global marketplace shall be considered favorably with a view that such exports are usually in the national interests of the United States.

Sensitive or advanced spacecraft-related exports may require a government-to-government agreement or other acceptable arrangement.
