Hi All,
This hasn't received much play over the past few months, with the exception of some stories on the Appaisal Intelligence site, but the HUD proposal has the potential to radically alter our way of doing business for any mortgage loan appraisal work.
The Appraisal Institute and American Society of Appraisers have submitted a joint comment letter. Synopsis and link to download at this link:

The National Association of REALTORS has submitted a comment letter also. Here's another link:

In addition, NAR has provided the text of the study upon which their comments are based.
The Downside Risks of HUD's Guaranteed Mortgage Package
Prepared by: Ann B. Schnare, Ph.D.

Bill Sentner's Appraiser's Guild has also submitted a letter critical of the proposal. I do not have a link to that one. Maybe he will provide the text.
