It isn't that I necessarily want them included in a textbook (even advanced), but the wording implies that they should also be left out of the dictionary; that I definitely don't like. By the way, I happen to think "zai" is fine, although uses have not yet arisen much. It addresses a potential future hole. How about "What are the 1st 6 notes of Are You Sleeping?": zai zgike bu cy dy ebu cy dy ebu.

I am avoiding the suggested term "deprecation", because that term is usually used in standards documents for things that are on the way towards being obsoleted. I definitely do not want that for a document that is supposed to be the final normative word, ever, on Lojban.

If we're not going to free up the cmavo space, I'd be fine with " except in the most advanced materials".

I'd prefer to free up the cmavo, but it's clear that there's not enough support for that. No big deal.
