Thanks.

Two more remarks:
- Having looked at the framework how we handle this regulatory stuff
  in Linux these days, it looks very reasonable to me -- good job!
- The frequencies above (from Frequenznutzungsplan = freq. util. plan) 
  are really the limits of the frequency ranges to be used, not channel
  center freqs. So if we'd have to put possible center freqs in there 
  and assume 22MHz (+-11MHz) for the 2.4 GHz range, we'd need to put 
  2411 -- 2472.5 in the DB. Likewise, assuming 20MHz (+-10MHz for the
  5GHz range, we'd specify 5160 -- 5240, 5240 -- 5340 and 5480 -- 5715),
  of, for 40MHz(+-20MHz) channels, it would be 5170 -- 5230, 5230 --
  5330 and 5490 -- 5705. Such values are displayed with iw reg get 
  for our neighbors NL, FR, ... which gave me the idea that we might
  not have the real boundaries in the db, but center freqs.
  That said, I'd think real boundaries make more sense, as channel
  widths may evolve over time ...
