AL>> The default for MINphone will be changed to 1 in 3.3.2.  This   
    AL>> should effectively disable the check, because it will pass the   
    AL>> line as long as there is at least 1 digit in the phone number   
    AL>> field. Nodelist entries with no digits in the phone number field   
    AL>> are errors, and should be flagged as such, with the only   
    AL>> exception being -Unpublished- for Pvt, Hold, or Down nodes.   
      
    ml> isn't "-Unpublished-" also decoupled from those verbs so that it can   
    ml> be used without them?   
      
    MvdV> Yes, but not by default.   
      
   ahhh... ok... but that is the goal and has been since 10+ years at least ;)   
      
    ml> one of the goals is (was?) for entries like this   
      
    ml> Pvt,50,Haven's_Terminus,Haven_NC_USA,Max_Haven,-Unpublished-,300,XA,IB   
    ml> N:foo.com   
      
    ml> to become entries like this   
      
    ml> ,50,Haven's_Terminus,Haven_NC_USA,Max_Haven,-Unpublished-,300,XA,IBN:f   
    ml> oo.com   
      
    MvdV> For that one has to add:   
      
    MvdV> allowunpub 1   
      
    MvdV> to the config.   
      
   right... i slipped that the (current) default method was being discussed...
