Danny,

My recollection of Randy's presentation was not what you suggest.

I think he said that having each AS along a path associated a 
lifetime with the sig it applied to an update was a bad idea.  He 
also said that a beacon rate of about 24 hours, at the origin AS, 
seemed potentially useful, and would not result in excessive routing 
churn.
