Dear all,

I would like to address an issue about erroneous judgement of life time for a 
stored resource in Storage Request after resource migration. It might be caused 
by asynchronized clock among peers.

In the section of Data Storage Protocol specified in reload base, it gives a 
note that "this does not require synchronized clocks: the receiving peer uses 
the storage time in the previous store, not its own clock."  But it seems 
resulting in an impact on life time judgement for checking the validity period 
for the stored data after resource migration. If the clock is required to be 
synchronized for all peers on the overlay, the validity period check can be 
done dependent on both 'storage_time' and 'lifetime', even resource migration 
occurred. But now the 'storage_time' can be used for such time operation in the 
receiving peer, especially for resource migration situation. An alternative is 
that the original responsible peer modify the 'lifetime' in the Store Request 
before resource migration for the new responsible peer so that the new peer can 
know how much time the migrated resource will be expired.

Should we specify the action of modifying the life time for Store Request when 
doing resource migration in the reload base specification? Any response is 
welcome. Thanks a lot. 

BR,
Jeffrey
