At a glance Beta
What's being studied — points to watch
Revise, replace or abrogate
Each old resolution is judged individually — kept, updated, merged, or removed. The standing item covers those unrelated to other agenda items; related ones are reviewed under their own items (Res. 95).
No loss of live obligations
Care is needed that abrogation does not accidentally drop a provision another active rule still relies on.
Keeping the rulebook usable
The value is a leaner, current set of decisions that administrations can actually navigate.
