The industry currently has different techniques for parsing and using

provide privately through its callback. So the wireless core can keep
as the common denominator between the AP's Country IE and what CRDA
has for the alpha2 provided by the Country IE. Drivers themselves can
further enhance regulatory enforcement by relying on private driver
data if they wish so.
Can you elaborate on the first sentence? Are you just saying that some
software blindly trusts the contents of the country IE and doesn't
constrain it's use (as you describe)? Or are you saying drivers
interpret the contents of the country IE in ways different than spec'd?
