    Out of curiosity, what’s preventing someone from making a regulatory db similar to tzdb other than the lack of maintainers?

    This seems like the perfect use case for something like this: ship with a reasonable default, then load a specific profile after init to further tweak PM. If regulations change you can just update a package instead of having to update the entire kernel.

      tzdb is maintained by IANA. Doubt you can find a similarly large org to run the regulatory db project
