You might wish to recall that the so-called Deutero-Paulines *are* within the 
purview of C-P, since according to the protocols our focus is:

the life, influence, teaching, theology, and writings of (or attributed to) 
the
Apostle Paul.

Incidentally, this would allow discussion of 3 Corinthians as well as other 
"Pauline" material in the NT Apocrypha.
