The "markdown-link-check" tool is used to check for broken links in the project's Markdown files. In addition to the obvious case where a broken link is indicated by an HTTP response status code, the case where the server does not respond must also be covered. By default, "markdown-link-check" waits 10 s for a response, and considers the link broken if one was not received in that time. It has been found that it occasionally takes more than 10 s to receive a response from some functional links, and thus the default timeout value was resulting in disruptive false positives from the link check.
