I would say that you can best implement this by adding property that you give the initial value of the constant you mention. Instead of assigning the constant (elsewhere in the code, I haven’t looked), you would assign the property. The property setter would have to take care of any additional assignments during runtime, i.e. when you want to up the value to > 60.
Would you like to try and create a patch that does this? Simple attach it to a (new) JIRA ticket and tell this list; a committer will surely pick it up, check it and apply it to the SDK. If the tests (Mustella) pass, you will have made a valuable contribution!
