For CBOR encoding, decide if timestamps should use time tags #13

Open rohanmahy opened 6 months ago

Should the Timestamp be?

a) a uint64 with no tag: unit .size 8 b) a uint64 with new tag: ex: 62(uint .size 8) c) use time tags with a base time of integer and a number of additional milliseconds.

We need to decide what the time stamp is based on whatever value we get from the MIMI protocol, which currently is just an integer number of milliseconds. It doesn't make sense to add a tag unless the TLS struct for timestamp in mimi-protocol has multiple options (ex: can optionally express sub-millisecond resolution).
