I responded in depth, but my service had discontinued while I was doing it. So, I set it as "mail waiting to be sent". When I went back on line, I could not find anything that says "mail waiting to be sent". I have been looking for it ever since. If anyone knows how to find it on AOL, let me know. I hate to admit it, and I don't want to do it again. But, as those who know me, I am not the best person with computers. They don't like me, and I am sort of indifferent as to how I feel about them. And, thanks Sarah, maybe I can get some help.

So, per their request; I'm sending it on. Apologies if you have already received it; and if this not allowed per List rules, please inform me. In short, AKC is actively seeking feedback to proposed changes to their conformation judges approval process (all details below). Feedback can be sent to judgingapproval@xxxxxxx.

[image: American Kennel Club] Dear SARAH FALK, The AKC Board has been evaluating a variety of possible changes to the Conformation Judging Approval Process. During our study, we received input from a variety of sources. One example involves the breed educational components, which were established based on a poll of all Parent Clubs. We now need your insightful personal comments and suggestions regarding the proposal. Attached are four documents that fully explain the proposal: an overview of the proposal, the detailed proposal, a judges education component matrix, and a Frequently Asked Questions document. Please review all the material and let us have your comments, suggestions, questions, and overall agreement or disagreement with the proposal as it stands today. Simply respond to this email at this address with your thoughts. We have established a 21-day comment period to give the necessary time for due consideration and comment. Please respond no later than Tuesday, November 18, 2014. This will allow for a careful analysis of all responses prior to the December Board meeting. Since we are requesting input from as many participants as possible, please feel free to pass this on to others. Thank you for your help and guidance in this important process.
