Friends don't let friends telnet.

Ok, joking aside ... it's seemed to me for some time now that the only
reason telnet survives is because the Neandertal US encryption-is-munitions
export law forces ssh to be a user-installed add in. Debian comes closest
(that I know of) to making this easy, but even it hasn't been able to shipp
SHH on CDs. 

I know the encryption rules are improving. Are they improving enough that we
will see some SSH product (OpenSH, for example) actually ship with *any*
CD-based Linux distribution?
