Arvola,

Your suggestion below should be accompanied by words in the definition of
RetryInterval that state that RetryInterval applies to the time between
sending of the original message and the first retry as well as the time
between retries.  This is missing from both the MSG spec and the CPPA spec.

Regards,
Marty

David:

How about rephrasing the sentence on lines 1738-1739 as:

"For a reliably delivered message, TimeToLive MUST be greater than
(Timestamp + Retries * RetryInterval)."

I also agree with Dan that ExpirationTime would be a better name than
TimeToLive. However, that will trigger other requisite descriptive
changes because we currently have an errorCode named
TimeToLiveExpired.

Spec section 7.4.5:
TimeToLive MUST be greater than the product of Retries and RetryInterval
since
the message was originally sent.

Your comments:

  You cannot directly compare a dateTime quantity against a duration
quantity.

This does not directly compare.  TimeToLive is compared to (Retries *
RetryInterval) SINCE the message was originally sent.

I believe this is correct.  How would you prefer to say this?
