The SWG may announce cut-off dates for the submission of CRPs that are to be addressed in the next revision in accordance with the OGC TC Policy and Procedures. Additional CRPs submitted after the cut-off date may be addressed at the discretion of the SWG based on criticality of the change and available time and resources. The deliverables of the SWG will be revisions of the standard for consideration by the membership for adoption. The SWG may decide to address selected CRPs immediately in a corrigendum of the current standard.
