================================================
     used in exceptional circumstances, since it risks conflict with
     conventional dialling, and it is almost always better to list a
     fully qualified domain name in a field that allows it.


  Field 7: DCE speed (required, but obsolete)

     Type: string;  Length: 1+

     In the past, this field was used to show the maximum modem speed
     supported by the node, but has since been obsoleted in favour of
     the more accurate modem flags.

     Commonly accepted values in this field are: 300, 1200, 2400,
     4800, 9600, 14400, 16800, 19200, 28800 and 33600.  These values
     are normally enforced by segment processing software; deviations
     risk the entire entry being declared in error and dropped from
     the nodelist or segment.

     Systems without a listed PSTN line must use 300, including ISDN
     and IP only nodes.  All others may use whichever value is most
     appropriate.  Because this field is now of little value except
     for human readers, most PSTN capable systems currently list at
     most 9600.  Nodelist maintainers should confirm with their
     Coordinator(s) before listing higher rates.


  Field 8+: Flags (optional)

     Type: string;  Length: varied;  Characters: varied.

     Any remaining fields from position eight (8) onward are flag
     fields.  Note there may or may not be a trailing comma after
     Field 7 if there are no flags listed.

     See FTS-5001 for details on the flag fields, including length
     restrictions.


6. Nodediffs
------------

  The nodelist, even in archive form, is a substantial document (or
  file).  To reduce bandwidth usage/waste and transmission times, a
  smaller file called a "nodediff" is generated using the previous
  week's nodelist.  The nodediff is actually an editing script which
  contains only new or changed lines between the two nodelists, plus a
  number of editing commands.

  The nodediff file is named and archived in the same way as the full
  Distribution Nodelist, except with a base filename of NODEDIFF.

  The first line of NODEDIFF.nnn is an exact copy of the first line of
  LAST WEEK'S nodelist. This is used as a first-level confidence check
  to insure that the right file is being edited. The second and sub-
  sequent lines are editing commands and editing data.  There is no
  terminating EOF (^Z) character on a nodediff.

  There are three editing commands and all have the same format:

          <command><number>

     <command> is a 1-letter command; A, C, or D.  <number> is an
     integer from 1 to 32767 (inclusive), and defines the number of
     lines to be operated on by the command. Each command appears on a
     line by itself. The commands have the following meanings:

     Ann - Add the following nn lines to the output file.

     Cnn - Copy nn unchanged lines from the input to the output file.

     Dnn - Delete  nn lines from the input file.

  The following illustrate how the first few lines of NODEDIFF.213
  might look:

     ;A Friday, July 25, 1986 -- Day number 206 : 27712
     D2
     A2
     ;A Friday, August 1, 1986 -- Day number 213 : 05060
     ;A
     C5

  This fragment illustrates all three editing commands. The first line
  is the first line from NODELIST.206.  The next line says "delete the
  first two lines" from NODELIST.206.  These are the identification
  line and the line following it. The next command says "add the next
  two lines" to NODELIST.213.  The two data lines are followed by a
  command which says "copy five unchanged lines" from NODELIST.206 to
  NODELIST.213.  Notice that the first line added will ALWAYS contain
  the new nodelist's CRC.

  Since only the differences will be distributed, it is important to
  insure the accuracy of the newly created nodelist. This is the
  function of the CRC mentioned above. It is sufficient for a program
  designed to perform the above edits to pick the CRC value from the
  first line added to the output file, then compute the CRC of the
  rest of the output file. If the two CRCs do not agree, one of the
  input files has been corrupted. If they do agree, the probability is
  very high (but not 100%) that the output file is accurate.
7. Segments
-----------

  Segments are partial nodelists, usually containing only one complete
  branch of nodes, starting at the relevant zone, region, host or hub
  node.  The Distribution Nodelist is also referred to as a composite
  nodelist, as it is assembled from multiple zone-lists.

  The format and structure is the same as the Distribution Nodelist,
  including the header, with a base filename of local invention,
  usually derived from the contents of the segment (e.g. N712LIST.nnn
  or N712SEG.nnn for a segment containing all the nodes in Net 712).

  To generate the Distribution Nodelist, segments propagate up through
  the network's administrative hierarchy, each tier compiling segments
  from the tier immediately below, then passing on the resulting
  segment to the next tier upstream.

  For example, a Network Coordinator will collect Hub Segments from
  all the hubs in the same local network, compile it into a Network
  Segment, and forward it on to the Regional Coordinator.  And so on.

  Segments can also be sent back downstream - this is most commonly
  done with Zone Nodelists.  Nodes that do not need to attempt direct
  contact with nodes in other zones can use the Zone Nodelist instead
  of the full composite nodelist, saving on storage space and
  transmission time.

                      Different use of fields for IP nodes.
                      Notes to developers and maintainers.

                      Clarification on point phone numbers.
                      Clarification on the former "speed" field.
   Rev.2, 2004-08-17: Re-re-draft by FTSC.
                      Added Introduction and Segments sections.
                      More allowances for IP listings.
                      Reorganised/reindexed Content section.
                      Added length limits to fields where they could
                      be determined.
                      Clarification on usage of Keywords.
                      Clarification on special node numbers.
                      ZCs authorise that ZIP is now the default
                      Archival/compression tool for distributed files.
   Rev.3, 2012-11-12: There is no version 3. The above version
                      2004-08-17 should have been labelled version 3,
                      but due to a clerical error it was also labelled
                      version 2. So there are two version 2's. Rather
                      than attempting to correct the error, which
                      would probably not have succeeded as it is next
                      to impossible to recall a file that was hatched
                      many years ago, it was decided to leave things
                      as they are, skip version 3 and carry on with
                      version 4.
   Rev.4, 2012-12-17: Allow -Unpublished- with Down (par 5.3, field 6)
                      Various small rewordings, clairifications and
                      corrections of spelling errors.
   Rev.5, 2014-01-23  Allow -Unpublished- with any or no keyword.
                      "must" replaced by "should" on 157 char limit.
                      Added reference to FTA-1006.
                      Corrected a few spelling errors.
                      Reformatted for compliance with FTA-1002.003
