Hi Bowen, Thanks for updating the proposal. This looks pretty good (as I said before). There are a few areas, that are not yet fully fleshed out:
1. Where should the TTL code reside? In the state backend or in the operator? 2. How to get notified about state accesses? I guess this depends on 1. 3. How to avoid conflicts of TTL timers and user timers? @Stefan (in CC) might have some ideas on these issues as well.
