Oops, I truncated that URL. Working link (also in the patch itself): https://www.legislation.gov.au/Details/F2016C00432 >> The current rules exceed legal limits between 5250-5330MHz, and permit >> illegal operation in 5600-5650MHz (reserved for weather radar). > > The changes also increases the limits for most other ranges, by quite a > bit in some cases.

All of the updated power limits are converted to dBm but otherwise straight out of the document, so they shouldn't be a problem. I'll update the changelog to note this. The frequency ranges have been "rounded down" to conform with the apparent convention of only including ranges used by standard 802.11 channels, rather than using the actual frequency ranges as has been done for some countries (and most 60GHz rules). My preference is the latter so that there is a clear correlation between the regdb and relevant documentation, and so that the regdb may become useful beyond 802.11. With your blessing as maintainer I will also make this change to the patch.
