A quick request: if you could please grant editing access to the doc that would be greatly appreciated! I was also wondering where the questions at the bottom of the document (under 'V. Proposed Questions’) came from? Is that from the call for public comment?
Or are these suggestions questions to include as part of our contribution?</div>
