Authors may not want to depend on ietf-lime-time-types for generic
types for time periods, nor am I sure the solution there is a simple
solution.

Perhaps its time to see whether it makes sense to spin an update of
RFC 6991 to add definitions that are apparently missing. Aftert 5
years this may be a reasonable thing to do. We should not hold off
work because of this but we may allow authors to transition to common
definitions if what they do now is compatible with a common solution
underway. I would be willing to allocate some of my time to an update
of RFC 6991 if the WG believes this is useful.
