Good point, Jerome, I totally forgot about the Valid_Time_Position
property. (Actually, I'm not sure I've ever seen it used in the
field!)
That said, I prefer the OpenTPX approach of allowing indicators to age
gradually rather than the current STIX approach of binary start/stop
times. It seems to me ultimately more useful to be able to say, "This
indicator is still valid but it is *less* valid than it was 10 days
ago" than to say, "This indicator is valid between now and next
Wednesday."
