Proposed changes to the new charter now explicitly refer tp "P".

So far, we've specified a OCP/HTTP profile that supports services 
operating on HTTP messages.

Now we specify a OCP/SMTP profile that supports services operating on 
SMTP messages.

I would assume this becomes clear from the proposed charter.

All future work will have to follow the one-party consent model, i.e. 
at least one of the ends has to authorize the servive (this,, of

That is meant to say "...HTTP or SMTP messages". Will change that.
