ISO TMB - 5 year rule

• If a project does not produce a draft for DIS
  ballot (stage 30.99) in an acceptable form within
  five years of registration of a New Work Item
  (10.99), the project will be cancelled
  automatically by ISO three months after that
  deadline, unless
• a DIS document has been delivered, and
• the corresponding CD was registered not more than
  six months before the deadline.
• If a project does not produce a document for FDIS
  ballot (or publication in the extent of 100
  approval at DIS) (stage 40.99) within five years
  of registration of a New Work Item (10.99), and
  no progress has been made in the year prior to
  that deadline, the project will be cancelled
  automatically by ISO three months after the
  deadline, unless the final document has been
  delivered to ISO.

ISO TMB - 2 year rule

• Work items which have not advanced to a new ISO
  stage for two years or longer shall be cancelled
  automatically by the Central Secretariat.
• The Central Secretariat will notify SC4 when a
  work item has not moved for one year, and this
  list will be circulated to the project leaders
  concerned.
• Projects which have been cancelled automatically
  can be re-instated as new projects if they are
  re-balloted as new work item proposals and if the
  necessary support is secured from at least five
  member bodies who wish to participate actively in
  the development of the project.
