  1. This repository contains the plain text version of the regulatory
  2. database file I maintain for use with Central Regulatory Database
  3. Agent daemon. Also included is the compiled binary version of this
  4. file signed with my RSA key. This represents a good faith attempt
  5. to capture regulatory information that is correct at the time of its last
  6. modification. This information is provided to you with no warranty
  7. either expressed or implied.
  8. Also included are the tools used to compile and sign the regulatory.bin
  9. file as well as a MoinMoin macro used for viewing the database.
  10. TECHNICAL INFORMATION
  11. =======================
  12. The regulatory information in `db.txt' is stored in a human-readable
  13. format which can be read using the `dbparse.py' python module. This
  14. python module is used by the web viewer (Regulatory.py) which is
  15. implemented as a MoinMoin macro (and used on http://wireless.kernel.org)
  16. to allow viewing the database for verification.
  17. The dbparse module is also used by db2bin.py and db2fw.py, the `compilers'
  18. that compile the database to its binary formats.
  19. For more information, please see the CRDA git repository:
