Expiration time is still defined as optional in section 1. #177

From the definition of Subscription in section 1:

Subscriptions may (at the hub's decision) have expiration times akin to DHCP leases which must be periodically renewed.

This contradicts the rest of the specification.

hub.lease_seconds Hubs MUST supply this parameter when hub.mode is set to "subscribe".

Hubs MUST enforce lease expirations, and MUST NOT issue perpetual lease durations.
