   8) Jitter Text
 
----------------------------------------------------------------------------
   Status: No Consensus
   Change: Potentially 
   Summary:
    Change:
     "jitter should be applied to the
      timers associated with MinASOriginationInterval, Keepalive, and
      MinRouteAdvertisementInterval"
    To:
     "jitter should be applied to the timers associated with ConnectRetry
timer"
   
   Discussion:
   
   In the tread entitled "bgp draft review":
   The thread also proposed:
   
   "jitter should be applied to the
      timers associated with MinASOriginationInterval, Keepalive, and
      MinRouteAdvertisementInterval"
   
   Be changed to:
   
   "jitter should be applied to the
      timers associated with ConnectRetry timer"
   
   - There was limited discussion on this issue.  Implementions will
   add jitter to all of these.  There is no consensus on changing this
   text.

I would suggest that we'll change the text to make sure that jitter
is applied to all the timers. To make this change I would suggest
to get rid of section 9.2.1.3 ("Jitter"), move the text of this
section into Appendix "BGP Timers", and expand the text to indicate
that jitter applies to ConnectRetry timer as well.

Yakov.
