I'll just repeat my previous reply to your inquiry on this subject:
FidoNet is a legacy protocol that must (from what I've observed) be enhanced only in backwards-compatible means. So if you want to add, say, the full year of authorship to to messages in a backwards compatible way, a new control paragraph (kludge line) would be the way to go.
And if you're going to introduce another date/time format, best to use existing standards (e.g. RFC822 or ISO-8601) rather than introducing yet another date/time format. --- SBBSecho 3.14-Linux * Origin: Vertrauen - [vert/cvs/bbs].synchro.net (1:103/705)
