Section Number and Name: 
Release Notes

Describe the issue: 
Dropping the cp_events table stops the collection/persistence of events in the database, and changes CP endpoints to return empty lists.
For 6.6 the table was dropped & changes were made to the CP endpoints to return empty lists.

For 6.7 the API endpoints from Candlepin are to be removed as well. This feature implies updates to the Katello UI components, so will most likely be present in the Satellite web UI. 

Suggestions for improvement: 
From a documentation perspective, a release notes entry is a satisfactory resolution. Since this feature hasn't been completed it requires more monitoring.
