New IEEE Standard - Inactive-Withdrawn.
This document describes the concepts necessary and appropriate for Networks of Interoperating Reuse Libraries (NIRLs). The purpose is to provide a context for standardization efforts toward the goal of supporting and enhancing interoperability.

The scope of the guide will be the system-level concepts which form the context for a network of interoperating reuse libraries, including the identification of properties required of standards, policies and technology required for the context. It does not address the structure or organization of governing bodies, and identification of particular standards or detailed policies.
Providing a foundation for identifying the standards, policies, and infrastructure necessary to support large numbers of interoperating reuse libraries. This will provide guidance in the selection or creation of appropriate standards.
