      How Do I View and Download a Deprecated Specification in the Specification Workspace Tool?

      When a specification nears the end of its useful life, the Bluetooth© Special Interest Group (SIG) may deprecate it. Deprecated specifications are no longer maintained by the Bluetooth SIG and are not updated with any further error corrections, clarifications, or feature enhancements.

      To locate a deprecated specification in the Specification Workspace (SWS) tool, first access the homepage, then click the Archived Specs tab.
