 jv>>>     The PING and Tyz flags appear in the Z2 prolog:
 jv>>>         _below_ the "user flag" definition
 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
 ml>> /are/ userflags... just not _approved_ userflags...

 JV>     How likely do you think yourself it would be for the IC to
 JV> allow _non_approved_ flags of any kind to appear as allowed in
 JV> his own epilog.txt?

 JV>     Use a scale of 1 bit ;-)

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...
