Background: P&P references regarding Working Group hibernation a) LMSC P&P 12 June 2014. 5.2 WGs - Individual Method If a WG has no active PARs, and is not actively developing a new PAR, then it should be considered to either be placed in hibernation (if it has developed standards or recommended practices in the past that are still current), or disbanded (if it has no current standards or recommended practices) 5.2.1 Hibernation of a WG. A WG may be hibernated at the request of the WG Chair and the approval of the Sponsor. The hibernating WG may be returned to active status by the Sponsor in order for the WG to develop a new PAR. Hibernating WG Chairs become Non-Voting Members of the Sponsor after their WG enters hibernation. The Sponsor Chair may appoint new hibernating WG Chairs to replace vacancies as soon as practical, subject to confirmation by the Sponsor at the next plenary meeting. A hibernating WG Chair of the Sponsor shall be recognized as a full member of the Sponsor, having all rights and meeting privileges except the right of voting on Sponsor motions. b) IEEE 802 LAN/MAN STANDARDS COMMITTEE (LMSC) OPERATIONS MANUAL 13 July 2018 4.2 IEEE 802 LMSC WGs The chair of a hibernating WG shall maintain a list of experts that are available to answer questions and provide clarification about the standards and/or recommended practices generated by the WG. Inquiries concerning the standards and recommended practices of a hibernating WG shall be directed to the chair of the hibernating WG. The chair shall attempt to resolve the inquiry using the core of experts, as necessary. If the chair is unable to resolve the inquiry, the chair may petition the Sponsor to reactivate the WG.
