The problem that I have with the announcement is that anyone can send in a
preproposal "as long as they are employed by an eligible institution".  The
rubber hits the road when an employee at an eligible institution is
notified in June that their application has made the first cut and their
OSP Officer has to tell them that they are ineligible to apply because
their institution only allows faculty members to apply for research grants!
