to comply with US export restrictions. Thankfully they didn't let it end there and have found a way to put the power back in the hands of the users http://ow.ly/14U1k. /"Beginning now, every project admin can click on Develop -> Project Admin -> Project Settings to find a new section called Export Control.

After that, all users will be able to download your project files as they did before last month's change."/
