Question

What defines dormancy? What grace period before governance authority lapses? Can a dormant Franchise be revived, adopted, or preserved in read-only form?

Why it's a real question

A real platform will accumulate Franchises whose contributor energy fades. The choices the community makes here — slow read-only with revival path, structured adoption by interested contributors, formal sunset — set tone for whether OLN treats inactive corners as wasted real estate or as preserved cultural archive.
