I'm reading a letter that was posted at the forum at eclassics.ning.com.  (http://eclassics.ning.com/forum/topic/show?id=727885%3ATopic%3A19077&page=41)

"The goals of the AP World Languages & Literature Course & Exam Review are: 1) to ensure that the suite of AP courses and exams align with the National Standards; and 2) to have assessments that are as parallel as is appropriate."

Ahhhhhhhhh.  This says a lot and backs up something I said in another comment elsewhere earlier today, which is, I think, AP is trying to bring all of its language courses into alignment with each other, but now we see even more so with National Standards.  VERY INTERESTING.  So, what will this mean for Latin?  WILL WE FINALLY GET SOME ORAL LATIN ON THE EXAM?!  IN WHAT FORM?!!!!!

What an interesting thought.  I have got to get myself on this upcoming committee.
