Hi Nick, 

Pretty much the only one of 'note' was one that has been in use for 10 years
but was never risen to a standard and finally (with a split vote) relegated to
the reference library.  

It's the automated point assignment system, used almost exclusively by western
Europe and only parts of that.  It was 4 or 5 for FTS (in current use) and 6-7
for FRL (too little use I think was the main reason they stated).  Smile, I
lost that vote if wondering as I've supported it but I grant it has a small
usership and always has.  

That it shifted in documentation to FRL doesnt mean the aooroved flags or
software have gone away.  Only that a new author with new ideas isn't expected
to try to be compatible with the existing method.  They can use the data in the
reference library if they wish or start with a blank slate.

There is another one on FTN address formatting but it is still under discussion
and as far as I can see, it is redundant as all the info in it is covered
elsewhere already.  At least i didnt see anything not covered elsewhere and no
one else has pointed out something in there only.  If we find something, maybe
we can move that line or so to one of the existing spots to pull things
together a bit better.
