SAFE Network Fundamentals: Context

[Traktion]

@reivanen

I think there should be a concept of time as a service. It will be very handy to work with time even if the core logic does not use it. Implementation could be as simple as implementing a gettime call that asks the other nodes in your group to vote on what the clock is, and an average is returned. I believe something like this could easily become the default NTP service of the internet.

I think many would agree, but the network itself shouldn’t depend on it, just the apps that run upon it.
