[CESG] Re: [Moims-dai] RE: CESG - MOIMS Resolution Nr 1 after last Fall 2012 CCSDS meeting,

[John Garrett]

Hi,

Why do we need deprecate these to historical at all.

For example, we have data stored in SFDU format with the intention of it being 
stored for the long-term, possibly 50 + years.  The SFDU should not be deprecated 
any more than the Fortran even older COBOL languages standards are disposed of.  
The standards for the computer languages remain standards, even when other 
computer languages are adopted for wide-spread use.

Good Health and Much Peace,
-JOhn
