I wasn't able to track down any official documentation of Russia's
regulations, but a few unofficial sources showed that range as being
allowed. What source(s) are you using to determine that it is not?

Feel free to send a patch if you think this should be changed, or I can
make one if you're not comfortable doing so. It would be helpful to have
a link to support the change though.

Thanks,
