The BMWG put together a draft on single-box BGP convergence a few years
ago.  I don't know if it ever made it to RFC status.

[Howard C. Berkowitz] It made it. RFC4098.

There are several different approaches to defining convergence. We
restricted it to the control plane, in that the box was considered to have
converged when it could advertise the last route received.

Other work uses the criterion of convergence occurring when a packet is
forwarded to the last route received.,
