 +I would add couple of more related issues might be important for
 +the Higgs production generation:
 +
 +1. we know from the last Les Houches 2013 how big was a difference between
 +   ​generator predictions of gg->​h+2jets passing VBF h selections. The
 +   ​proposal they made was to use in data the gluon initiated process and
 +   check data with the different MC. I have discussed it a bit with
 +   ​Frixione and looks like tt+jj with VBF selected jets may be a good
 +   ​benchmark for Monte-Carlos.
 +
 +2. Z+b(b) production important benchmark for SUSY H+b(b). Both ATLAS and
 +   CMS 8 TeV analyses see the pTZ a bit harder than LO/NLO+PS predictions
 +   see slide 22 of this talk for example:
 +
 +http://​indico.cern.ch/​event/​331452/​session/​4/​contribution/​25/​material/​slides/​1.pdf
 +
 +   We see with MG5_aMC@NLO that Higgs pT in H+b(b) is sensitive to the
 +   ​shower scale. So tuning it with Z+b(b) data may help to descrive properly
 +   Higgs pT in H+b(b).
 +   
 +**Josh**
 +CMS has produced/is producing large sets of events for ttbar+0,​1,​2j NLO with mg_aMC@NLO+pythia8 (FXFX merging) at both 8 and 13TeV. ​ Since that is quite CPU intensive we can provide the lhe files if we have some common space somewhere where I can put them.
