Subject: [P2PSIP] time synchronization?

Hi Guys,

In -diagnostics draft, we have timestamp that is used by the intermediate nodes to check if the message is expired or not. It raises a problem of time synchronization. I think we need a decision from the WG. We need careful consideration on how to use the timestamp because time synchronization is a barrier in open Internet environment, while in a managed environment, it may be less of a problem. Do we want to enforce the time synchronization or do we want to lose the feature to check the message expiration (and one-way-delay)? Please tell what you are thinking about.

BR,
