 SL> The requirement comes from Policy:

then the /only thing/ that paragraph in FTS-5000 and FTA-1000 talks about is
maintaining FTS-0001 as the minimal mail exchange protocol unless the IC
approves changing that one thing... it is not all inclusive covering all
documents and protocols or standards...

P4>> Zone Mail Hour is the heart of FidoNet, as this is when
P4>> network mail is passed between systems.  Any system which
P4>> wishes to be a part of FidoNet must be able to receive mail
P4>> during this time using the protocol defined in the current
P4>> FidoNet Technical Standards Committee publication (FTS-0001
P4>> at this writing).  It is permissible to have greater
P4>> capability (for example, to support additional protocols or
P4>> extended mail hours), but the minimum requirement is FTS-0001
P4>> capability during this one hour of the day.

yup... FTS-0001 only  ;)

 ml>> oh, and just so you and everyone else know, that charter was
 ml>> written by the last FTSC and put in place by themselves with
 ml>> no approval from any *Cs ;)

 SL> Oh ffs...

i have the original one here in my archives... it was written by adrian
walker... the second and current version was slightly reformatted, had the
author name changed to administrator and the revision number of 2 added...
