Upper bound for RateLimit-Reset #84

Closed ioggstream closed 2 years ago

ioggstream commented 2 years ago

I expect

The delta-seconds used for RateLimit-Reset to have an upper bound.

We could say that:

if the value is higher than x it could be processed as an UNIX Timestamp.

Notes

Could 2 days be enough? (eg. 48*3600).

I don't expect issues if I don't respect a 2-day request-quota, though this choice is really arbitrary;

What's the objective of doing this? Setting an absolute timestamp value as the reset assuming everyone is NTP sync'ed?

ioggstream commented 2 years ago

It's an old issue I did not port back to the new repo, and that should be discussed.

ioggstream commented 2 years ago

Retry-After does not have such considerations, so I think we can live without them.
