The original contributor can come back later and request a sponsor again or someone else can pick it up and request a sponsor. So what is the reason for having a suspended state in that case it seems no different to back on the available list. -- Darren J Moffat

The original contributor can come back later and request a sponsor again or someone else can pick it up and request a sponsor. That said, a quick check leads me to believe that this information is perhaps not actually on the website..so let me think about how to make this more clear..suggestions welcome. Thanks. Bonnie
