What I do now is a very occasional slight overcharge for cell balance but mainly hold the battery at 12.8 volts all the time, since the battery is not used.

A few places to look -

1) DOE HANDBOOK PRIMER ON LEAD-ACID STORAGE BATTERIES - search for the document name

2) Trojan Battery users guide http://www.trojanbattery.com/pdf/UsersGuide_English.pdf
3) Battery blunders http://homepower.com/view/?file=HP114_pg54_Dankoff

4) Battery charging rates http://homepower.com/article/?file=HP115_pg12_AskTheExperts_6
