Hi,

After reading the current version of the draft, I was wondering (sorry if it's a very stupid question):

Why does the current_delays list have to be initialized to +INFINITY? ("on initialization:", sec. 3.4.2) I understand why that's the case for base_delays, but not for current_delays.

Thanks,

David.

PS: Jana and Mirja, I'll send you offline a list of typos I found.
