I'd still like to see clarifications (answers to my example questions)
regarding License 1. To make it easier to track, here it is:

Let's consider (an updated) hypothetical case: company A adds an OCB
implementation
to OpenSSL (or Crypto++). Company X then uses that library/package in their
proprietary "SuperComm" software that they subsequently sell to Department
of Defense and to Department of Energy.

First - are they even allowed to to that under this license?

Second - how much of the source code do they have to make available to
satisfy the terms of "License 1"? Just the OCB code? The entire OpenSSL or
Crypto++? The entire "SuperComm" source?


Third - if there's a violation of the license terms in the above example,
which entity is considered responsible?
