Hello August,

Sunday July 11 2021 18:34, you wrote to me:

Measure twice, cut once. :)

FWIW, the individual hubs create their own segments manually.  All my system does is spit out the compiled nodelist.  As for Bjorn's nodelist flags, ask him what they mean.  Unless I get notice from a hub or a node that their nodelist isn't compiling correctly, that doesn't bother me.

If you have any questions about the nodelist, contact the NC who wrote that segment--in this case, it's Nick Andre--rather than me.  Unless it's affecting the network, it's not my concern.

Yes, that's a lot of flags, but you should be aware that Fidonet Zone 2 have their own special flags that Zone 1 does not use.  In my case, any flags that my system doesn't recognize are ignored and for the past 21 years, they have not caused any problems here.  So no worries from me on Bjorn's node segment or Nick's net segment.  MakeNL compiles the nodelist just fine and that's okay by me.

Also, this really should be brought up in MIN_ADMIN and not in MIN_BBS.  If you don't have it already, please ask Mike to give you access to MIN_ADMIN.

I appreciate your concern but to me a lot of nodelist flags aren't anything for me to worry about. :)  (Lazy ZC talking)
