[Seamoby] RE: Removing CT Requirements

["Gary Kenward" <[e-mail]>]

I would like to know from George if he believes
5.5.2 is irrelevant, or simply ambiguously worded.
I believe (and I suspect that George may concur)
that error protection for the context is
required (consider the possible impact of attempting
to install or use erroneous context at an AR), and 
that it is important to clearly identify that requirement 
(particularly given that there are no transport 
requirements in the id).
