Hmm.. It looks like all of www.ntrc.org.lc is in somewhat strange state
at the moment. If I remember correctly, I did test this link earlier
myself and it worked, so that may be a temporary issue (it returns a
somewhat interesting javascript design to display ads or domain parking
info, etc., and that does clearly work either; anyway, not something
that one would hope to see from a regulatory commission website). I'd
hope that this gets resolved eventually, but if desired, I can remove
that source link as well based on its current state.

Yes, indeed, it does seem to be messed up completely. I think leaving
the link is fine - for now at least archive.org has a copy so knowing
where it was is still useful.

There I disagree, if its not a regulatory requirement forcing something
on Linux is prone to be hacked around, so to avoid issues also with
regulatory bodies what we do is enable R&D folks to use certain features
undera CONFIG_CFG80211_CERTIFICATION_ONUS so I think a reasonable compromise
is that by default Linux ships with what you say but we enable researchers
and developers to customie their kernels and use the OCB bands for other
purposes. That doesn't mean we need to support it -- it just means if
someone wants to hack on the code to do it we should give them the freedom
to do so. That means we can ignore OCB bands for non-OCB purposes for now
completely and just let whoever wants to do something different to use
CONFIG_CFG80211_CERTIFICATION_ONUS. I can also see conflicts with non
OCB devices on OCB bands so its importan for us to not fuck with that
loosely too.

OK -- again CONFIG_CFG80211_CERTIFICATION_ONUS :) if someone decides
to tinker lets let them. But Linux by default should be have IEEE
compliant and regulatory compliant.
