Create a standard for Systematic Updates

[david-istvan]

When and how to update systematic studies?

Some pointers:

• Mendes et al., When to update systematic literature reviews in software engineering
• Garner et al., When and how to update systematic reviews: consensus and checklist
• Wohlin et al., Guidelines for the search strategy to update systematic literature reviews in software engineering

We are working on breaking the systematic review standard into several more specific standards - for meta-analysis, meta-synthesis, case survey, etc. Once we know what that looks like, we can come back to how to deal with updates.
