On Jan 17, the charter was mapped to a list of proposed deliverable. Please, 
see the WG archive for the corresponding thread. One of the identified 
deliverables is:
4. A document discussing (and potentially defining) how to apply the 
opportunistic encryption approach (preliminary outlined in 
draft-farrelll-mpls-opportunistic-encrypt-00.txt) to TLS. (Category TBD)

That's probably a statement for the ADs to address... Pete, could you, please, 
chime in and clarify (again) what the intention of the Charter language is and 
how it corresponds to the "Opportunistic ..." concept?

>From the UTA Charter:
"- Consider, and possibly define, a standard way for an application client and 
server to use unauthenticated encryption through TLS when server and/or client 
authentication cannot be achieved."

Thanks,
Orit.
