Enrico Olivelli commented on BOOKKEEPER-879:
--------------------------------------------

I have to  change LedgerMetadata.parseConfig in order to take the ZK ctime 
field, I have some options:
1) change the signature and add an explicit "long ctime"
2) change the Version structure (for ZKVersion we will get the ctime from the 
Stat)

the option 2 is not good because ctime is not about versioning, since it is 
immutable
for the option 1 I hit anyway a problem on MSLedgerManagerFactory, can I let it 
to be 0 for MSLedgerManagerFactory ?

> I think that a creation timestamp would be very useful and it does not cost 
> very much. It would be an immutable value. 
> Nowadays (on 4.3.1) I must keep that info together with the id of the ledger, 
>  for instance in zookeeper,  but if that reference gets lost there is now way 
> to know how old a ledger is.
> I think that this timestamp should be captured on client while calling 
> createLedger or asyncCreateLedger.
> In addition to this very common field maybe it would be useful to add a 
> custom byte[] field named "custom client data" in order to let the client 
> 'describe' the ledger without the need of extra data on Zookeeper.
