RE: Clearinghouse/Aggregator Support for CUI



Hi Alan,

The CUI does not have to reveal the user's real identity.  However, at
the end of the day, it is the operator's choice.  "opaque string" type
is one way to maintain user's anonymity as you noted -- but I guess you
could also do this with the NAI format -- e.g., 1234@example.com  where
1234 is not the user's real identity, no?  

Regarding to a suggested "best practices" for format, are you suggesting
that the draft should recommend one of the specified formats, or suggest
a format for the "opaque string"?

BR,
Farid
