I'd split my vote between 'sponsored' and 'evaluated', the first one have the drawback that persons could think you're strongly sponsored by canonical and that would lead to more people demanding Ubuntu resources, because you're sponsored.
However in most cases it seems like the general rule is that people involved in the local teams give and support with their own resources many of the Ubuntu activities. I think 'verified' is closer to the reality.
