Knotted weaves can dissipate with time. As far as we know cuendillar does not weaken with time unless they are used as seals to the dark ones prison.
They dissipate if they are deliberately tied loosely. If the knot is tied permanently, nothing short of the One Power can end the weave.
Moghedien's compulsion on Liandrin is an example of this. But the real source of this information is RJ himself, who stated so in a response to a question from a fan.

I'm still not sure if cuendillar would be "destroyed" or "remain"

No - cuendillar just gets stronger the more powerful a force you use against it

Not sure, but the discussion might be saved somewhere (maybe in my e-mail somehow)

Create a ter'angreal that can open gateways wherever it is pointed and triggered.

Or they could just tie the gateway weave off, like Sammael did in CoS, and Rand did in KoD...

Why would this mean that the gateway weave doesn't need to be maintained? *NM*

Because even if it wasn't tied off, it'd get stuck around the cuendillar doorway, unable to close. *NM*

But RJ said that cuendillar could not pass into a gateway, didn't he?
