I've also used the pattern:
message Map {
message Entry {
optional string name = 1;
optional string value = 2;
}
repeated Entry entries = 1;
}
Alkis, do you see benefits or downsides between the two approaches?
To the second question, perhaps pick a universal representation for dates,
such as RFC 3339 (http://tools.ietf.org/html/rfc3339) and use a string?
