RE: [XCON] CPCP Requirement: Hidden Participants

["Rosen, Brian" <Brian.Rosen@marconi.com>]

I think that this capability could be deferred.
I think it would be acceptable to allow a user
to hide himself, and I think we need to allow
one user to hide another (because of the PC app
for a dumb phone problem).  I think getting into
permission issues is complicated.

I'm puzzled by "the list of hidden users is
manipulated by a privileged user..." I think that
such a statement opens a large box of complication
in specification.  I would prefer, for now, to
not have any specified behavior for anything
like a privileged user.
