Dale,

I have never wrapped my head around all the timer stuff, so I won't try 
to say anything definitive. My one concern would be whether what you are 
proposing is compatible with RFC 4320. I guess it you are assuming that 
receiving a retransmission of the original request implies that the 
condition has been satisfied for the UAS to send a 100. Is that right?
