Notice from DTSA Regarding DOD Software Guidelines
DOD Software Guidelines are no longer available from individual points of contact at DTSA. DTSA now has a centralized email address: dodsoftwareguidelines@dtsa.mil where exporters can send a request for the policy and can ask questions about it. This email address will remain constant as individuals change (and retire) so that changes will be transparent to the exporters. October 13, 2010
