-            causing confusion. </p>
-          <p>In order to improve this situation, a number of

-              <p>When the first reply arrives, a timer, request-keep-alive,

-                accepting replies as legitimate. </p>
-              <p>The timeout time for the timer is specified by the
-                config option <em>request_keep_alive_timout</em>, 
-                which can be set per 
-                <seealso marker="megaco#ui_request_keep_alive_timeout">user</seealso> 
-                or per

-	    </item>
-            <item>
-              <p>We also keep track of how many replies has been received
-                (we do this as long as the request-keep-alive timer is 
-                running). </p>
-            </item>
-            <item>
-              <p>Each reply that arrives while the request-keep-alive timer 
-                is running (including the first) will be delivered using the 
-                <seealso marker="megaco_user#trans_reply">handle_trans_reply/4,5</seealso> 
-                callback function, but with the UserReply augmented to
-                include a serial number indicating which reply number this
-                is. 
-                The <em>first</em> reply to arrive, 
-                will be numbered <em>one (1)</em>. </p>
-            </item>
-            <item>
-              <p>Replies arriving after the timer has expired will be delivered
-                in the same way as before, using the

-              <p>Note that if the timer was <em>not</em> configured,
