Re: [dcplusplus-devel] ADC: message timestamp

[Fredrik U. <ul...@gm...>]

How often would this feature be used? I.e., would (should) clients add that
every X message to ensure that they are not lagging (or every X seconds
etc)?

While I can admit that it might be interesting to have real timestamps (if
not simply for the fact that it'd be similar to other protocols), I fail to
see the usefullness for normal clients. (How would the client know when it
should send with timestamp and when it shouldn't?) At most, though, it seems
this feature would only be really useful in a debugging environment.

Also, it might be worthwhile introducing similar functionality in SCH -
though using timestamp as a "I don't care about search results after X
time", but I suppose that might be another whole discussion.
