Punctuation

I'm stumped trying to figure out where to put commas on this sentence:



"The test will use data from past exercises and standards established by working groups, such as but not limited to the Users Advisory Group."

I want to put commas after "as" and "to", but that seems to be too many commas.

Any help would be most appreciated!

The test will use data from past exercises and standards established by working groups such as but not limited to the Users Advisory Group.

With a sentence of that length and straightforwardness, I see no need for any commas at all-- they just slow the flow of the statement.
