jv>>> The PING and Tyz flags appear in the Z2 prolog:

jv>>> but _above_ the "approved user flags" heading
jv>>> Thusly they're not user flags.
ml>> hummm... reading what you've written, it would appear that they

hahaha, yeah, i see what you are saying... however, that's almost totally
rediculous because that is exactly what userflags were created for ;-) i know
that some software i beta test for may not want to have to go thru some
"approval methods" to be able to test a new flag proposal... especially if
those "approval methods" are as "time consuming" as the recent P4 updates
appear to be... that would kill that software in no time flat...
