Sorry, I must have missed that! :) I think it was originally intended
that the SR Geek Block would be separated from that of the "standard" Geek
Code, with it's own identifier & version declaration. See Logan's example
at the BKK site <http://www.intercom.net/user/logan1/bkk.htm>. I believe
this was intended to facilitate future automated parsing & decoding of the
contents of the SR Geek Code block (Gee, there's a good weekend project!),
I don't recall having reached any consensus re: standardization. Besides
that, it all looks good to me.
I'm not sure whether there was ever any discussion regarding width of the
block. I know that some of the folks stuck using web-based email accounts
(Hotmail, Yahoo, etc.) have issues with line wrapping beyond a certain (but
currently unknown to me) point, and use of a variable-width display font
tends to screw things up as well.
Also, can I safely infer that DSF="Dumpshock Forum?"
