I'm sure @Anna N will weigh in on how things may have evolved but in the meantime, check the first post in this thread for the initial specs.
Edited to add that I realize that this is the second time today that someone asked @Anna N a question and I jumped in with my 2 cents. I will stop interrupting. It's long been an issue of mine

Yes the rules have changed significantly over time. Things have evolved. Even the company where these meetings occur has changed hands and the attendees are very different. They have learned not to worry about messiness or have managed to cope with it because some of the messiest cookies I have sent have been the ones most praised.
The grand child is now a super senior in high school meaning she’s doing an extra year and the students are expected to take full responsibility for themselves so that peanut butter and nut allergies are not so much of a concern.
I have been baking long enough now that I’m willing to try things I would never have imagined I would do at the beginning.
I still don’t love baking but it doesn’t scare me anymore.
