There is a difference between a group that does it’s work in the open but isn’t reported on and a group that establishes their work area as a classified zone. I spent 24 years in the military, and I’ve seen the difference.

Well, this isn't totally in the open but all 535 members of congress can see the work in progress if they want to.

Do you know what level of classification this draft has? I haven't really heard.

There are legal penalties if the secrecy is violated. My guess is that makes it the military equivalent of top secret. I don’t know that congress uses that same system.
