        <pre>When it comes to the time values, I'm assuming that the values are simply ticks
relative to another point in time. Should there be an event telling client in
which point in time all the following values are relative to? This event would
be sent when the client connects and when the time value overflows. It could
simply handling of time overflows in clients and allow them to convert the
values to absolute time.</pre>
