   "FTSC Product Codes", http://ftsc.org/docs/fta-1005.003, says:   
      
       FidoNet products without an allocated product code which either   
       create type-2 packets, or negotiate FTS-0001 sessions must use a   
       product code x'fe or 254 in type-2 compatible packet headers. This   
       code as been reserved for that purpose (use by product without a   
       product code).   
      
   Can you give me an url to a newer spec saying 0x01ff?
