I second this request for consideration, there is serious risk of spillover effects. By searching for CPA in the MSH 2.0 Spec it looks relativly easy to replace references to CPP and CPA with more general statements not coverd by the current IPR. The CPPA stuf may easily be moved into an appendix containing bindings to technical interface descriptions technologies (WSDL, OMG IDL, CPPA,...).
