Hi Joan
Is there a process for reviving and updating a withdrawn standard?

The IEEE often makes withdrawn standards available for sale.  The 1076.6
standard is still available for sale at the IEEE standard store at
http://www.techstreet.com/ieee/searches/3381456.


A withdrawn standard might still be technically valid, or not. It's on a
case by case basis.
