Subject: [manet] DLEP-17: timers not clearly defined

The current specification seems to define (at least) two timers:
	- Peer Discovery Timer (Appendix A)
	- Heartbeat Timer (Section 5.3.1 & 10.5)

However, these are implicitly defined, rather than being explicitly
defined.  Further, the Peer Discovery Timer is defined in an
Appendix, not in the main body of the specification.  

REQUEST:  Please add a new Section named “Timers”.

It can be short, but it ought to define each timer that an implementation
ought to have, the semantics of each timer, the units (seconds ?) of each
timer, and pointers to the parts of the draft that define when/where/how
to use the timer(s).  

Thanks very much.

Yours,

Ran
