Hi Declan, Dave,

I thought you two and your respective lists might find this
interesting... posted by Mr. Young at Cryptome:

How the FBI Surveils the Net-Official Use Only
http://cryptome.org/fbi-cgvop.zip
(a ~400KB zipped PDF file)

It contains the document, "Electronic Surveillance Needs for
Carrier-Grade Voice over Packet (CGVoP) Service"

( A version of this document where copying and pasting has been
enabled is here:
http://www.why-war.com/resources/files/fbi_surveillance_voice_over_packet.pdf
)

I'm in no way qualified to analyze this document, although I'm sure
some VoIP people out ther are... here's the last paragraph of the
exec. sum.:

"To facilitate industry interaction, this document captures law
enforcements needs regarding LAES [Lawfully authorized electronic
surveillance] capabilities for CGVoP [Carrier-Grade Voice over Packet]
Service. The document focuses mainly on communicationidentifying
information associated with service-related events that are of
interest to law enforcement. The document also addresses law
enforcements needs regarding the content of CGVoP communications."
