[CoDeP] Committee on Deceptive Publishing

[Lester Ingber]

Since the (original?) purpose of this group is/was to enforce/advise
"quality control for journals admitted to be indexed in RePEc," I think it
more appropriate to address that in the title of the Committee?

How about something like
Committee for Journal Quality Control
or something like that?
