Re: [icnrg] Adoption of 'Alternative Delta Time Encoding for CCNx Using Compact Floating-Point Arithmetic' (draft-gundogan-icnrg-ccnx-timetlv)

Hello Hitoshi,

thank you for your feedback, my comments follow further down inline.

the current version of this document describes a few alternatives on how
to integrate the compressed time TLV into CCNx. One alternative proposes
to use the Length (L) field of the InterestLifetime TLV to identify the
included encoding (normal time (L>1) vs. compressed time (L==1)
representation). This would require a change in RFC8609 (Section 3.4.1
[1]).

Another alternative might update the message ABNF in Section 2.1 [2] of
RFC8569 to add a new top-level TLV for the compressed InterestLifeTime.

All proposed integration alternatives display advantages and
disadvantages. Getting group feedback on this particular topic is quite
valuable for the progression of this work. Thanks! We could also
reiterate over the existing integration ideas again (on the list?) in
order to stimulate new ideas and solutions (comparable to a draft
presentation?).

Best,
Cenk
