David, can I trouble you for a mailman wireless-regdb mailing list on
infradead.org? This would be used by those who are not developers and
do not need to be subscribed to linux-wireless. An example are
regulatory guys at different companies and generally interested
people/developers on the topic. This should hopefully accelerate the
turn around time for reviewing of patches and also a good placeholder
for us to go back and check the discussions that went on about this.

Is this really necessary?

Just hoping to avoid unnecessary confusion -- I suppose it is fine
if that is what people want...

I do not know how else to help speed up review without having to wait
for a intermediary delay of someone at a company forwarding some
regulatory changes e-mail to a person who is supposed to review them.
With the list we would have a direct way for people to communicate
with the folks who do care about regulatory and who may have roles who
do that.
If people do not mind the constant "please give us a few days" e-mails
then things work without the list but then we (at least Atheros) just
need to make sure regulatory change e-mails do get to the proper folks
for review because we (Atheros) is committed to reviewing these
changes.

BTW I found a use for this list now, to archive some initial e-mails
from Michael / others regarding reguatory changes. This information
would need to be parsed and then submitted in patch form but it should
also provide us with a URL reference on a regulatory related mailing
list for some details for commits on wireless-regdb.
I'll try it out next and you guys tell me if its OK.
PS. I'll be subscribing a few of you guys to this list now :)
