Although I am not an expert on regulatory law by anyone's estimation, I have maintained this database both through personal trust in those presenting patches and through an abundance of caution about only applying non-controversial changes. In any case, I now find other demands on my time. I have asked Seth Forshee if he would be willing to accept this responsibility from me and Seth has graciously done so. Seth, Luis, and I have been in the process of making the actual technical hand-off over the past several days, and I think everything should be in place soon (if it isn't already there now). This includes ensuring that Seth has the necessary access for publishing wireless-regdb updates on kernel.org, and ensuring that his public signing key is included as part of the CRDA package distribution. I would like to thank Seth for taking this important duty upon himself and I wish him all the best in doing so. I hope that everyone else will do the same! Thanks, John -- John W. Linville Someday the world will need a hero, and you linville@tuxdriver.com might be all we have. Be ready.
