RE: [XCON] CPCP Requirement: Hidden Participants

I know this issue has been settled, but just as a general
announcement for any work in any working group: the IAB
and IESG have stated positions on the topic of legal
intercept that are (to my understanding) binding on all
IETF protocols.

These positions are detailed in RFC 2804, and are
summarized as follows: "The IETF has decided not to consider
requirements for wiretapping as part of the process for
creating and maintaining IETF standards."
