Hi Junxiao,
This makes sense to me if the convention is documented.

Hi Jeff

FreshnessPeriod is a nonNegativeInteger, whose upper bound is 2^64-1.
This upper bound value gives a FreshnessPeriod that is millions of years, which is practically "always fresh".
It's unnecessary to have a special FreshnessPeriod value to indicate "always fresh".

Yours, Junxiao

Would it make sense to provide a way to encode whether the packet should be considered "always fresh" or "always stale" explicitly?
