'Natural EOL', per term in post by John Pearson, for the EU would have to be codified (in a directive?) because this tends to vary from one CAB to another. Many agencies immediately withdraw the cert when version of the standard used in the test report is obsoleted by OJ. More laws?
For North America, 'Natural EOL' is seldom regulated so becomes a point of policy for NRTLs and SCCs. Some agencies will allow a product to be listed and bear their mark to an obsolete version almost indefinitely. More laws?
