[Wg-idassurance] Achievable Assurance for ICAM Schemes

[Brett McDowell]

Agreed, good point.  So, are both worthy to work on?

BTW, what happened to AL=4 in the first matrix?  Is it dropped because
the ICAM program doesn't cover AL=4?  But since IAF does, perhaps IAWG
should add it back in for the sake of completeness.  Even if ICAM
wouldn't publish AL=4, the whole picture might be useful for KI to
publish.
