+When:   March 2010 / desktop catchup
+
 Why:    The old regulatory infrastructure has been replaced with a new one
         which does not require statically defined regulatory domains. We do
         not want to keep static regulatory domains in the kernel due to the
         the dynamic nature of regulatory law and localization. We kept around
         the old static definitions for the regulatory domains of:

                 * US
                 * JP
                 * EU
+
         and used by default the US when CONFIG_WIRELESS_OLD_REGULATORY was
-        set.
+        set. We will remove this option once the standard Linux desktop catches
+        up with the new userspace APIs we have implemented.

           This option enables the old static regulatory information
-          and uses it within the new framework. This is available
-          temporarily as an option to help prevent immediate issues
-          due to the switch to the new regulatory framework which
-          does require a new userspace application which has the
-          database of regulatory information (CRDA) and another for
-          setting regulatory domains (iw).

-          http://wireless.kernel.org/en/users/Documentation/iw

-          It is important to note though that if you *do* have CRDA present
-          and if this option is enabled CRDA *will* be called to update the
-          regulatory domain (for US and JP only). Support for letting the user
-          set the regulatory domain through iw is also supported. This option
-          mainly exists to leave around for a kernel release some old static
-          regulatory domains that were defined and to keep around the old
-          ieee80211_regdom module parameter. This is being phased out and you
-          should stop using them ASAP.
