[John Garrett]

Hi,

I think all CCSDS re-affirmations should be for 5 years (meaning that you 
are not required to re-affirm it again until another 5 years have passed).

At any time during that 5 years, the CMC can approve a new issue or can 
convert the standard into a historical document.

If WGs wish to do so, they may attach a statement that they expect a 
new/updated standard in X years.  However, this statement is informational 
only.  Attaching the statement  will not create a requirement that the 
standard be re-affirmed in X years.  The standard (absent any other CMC 
action) will remain valid for 5 years.
I always thought that was the intention of what P2 has done.


Cheers,
-JOhn
