Re: [XCON] CPCP Requirement: Hidden Participants

[Michael Hammer <mhammer@cisco.com>]

Related to this is there a requirement that, while not revealing the 
identity of a hidden user, the conference policy contains state indication 
about either the presence of hidden users, or the possibility/preclusion 
that such hidden users may be present?

I am anticipating that:
1) Laws may exist that require notification of such.
2) In some conferences, participants may want technical assurance that 
hidden users are not possible before they speak.
