Kent,

There's little cost for individuals to create and post
Internet-Drafts, and you can always ask later for adoption as a
working group item. I think this will be a lot easier to work with
once it's in I-D form. Also, that exercise should help to clarify
exactly what the intent of this work is. To me, it seems like the
intent is to make recommendations on protocol design concerning
keepalives, so I believe that is reasonable to target an informational
RFC or possibly even a BCP.

there's also some additional background material on keepalives
