Thus, as long as all reporting nodes report all updates to the realm overload status, it should be sufficient for a reacting node to only listen to one of the reporting nodes when determining if the OLR is new.


Okay, does that imply an argument for actual timestamps? :-) 

Or a way to make sure the timestamp is scoped to the reporting node?  Do we need to be unique across just time, or time and space?
