Hi Anne, Thanks for adding your additional suggestions to the Google Doc. I have updated your insertion in the document so that it matches the text below and added a comment indicating that you are the author of the comment.

Yes – I had previously added some other comments to the CPE Guidelines. At your invitation, I went back in and added the statement below to the Guidelines. (Firm guidelines do not permit signing in to Google docs and had some trouble with the form so we may need to check it against the language in red below.) More importantly, I note that the CPE Guidelines specifically state that they are NOT intended to broaden or narrow the scope of the AGB provisions, so it’s possible we have to state the following in the AGB itself: “In applying these scoring guidelines and as further described in the AGB, evaluators may rely on independent research deemed necessary to accurately complete the scoring process, provided, however, that the evaluator shall disclose such independent research to the applicant and the applicant shall be provided 30 days to respond to such research before the evaluation decision is rendered.” Also relevant is the section in the CPE Guidelines regarding Verification of Support Letters. I guess we can discuss verification generally whenever we discuss the CPE Section and the Guidelines.

It includes input received about the Guidelines over the mailing list inserted as comments. You can find the document here: https://docs.google.com/document/d/1Ih_1NARViJXNNewDg-q87sQzQoC1dCtC/edit [docs.google.com]<https://urldefense.proofpoint.com/v2/url?u=https-3A__docs.google.com_documen...>. I don’t believe that the Working Group has actually taken the step of agreeing on revisions to the 2012 Guidelines or scoring criteria, but that could potentially be a next step for the Working Group to take on.

In addition, I think I have missed the proposed revisions to the Community Guidelines for scoring. Jeff, was this sent around again? Thank you, Anne Anne E.
