Hello,

I proposed a set of simple rules.

     A          B           C            D
     +----------+-----------+------------+-----------

Log opens at time (A)
First log entry at time (B)
Second log entry at time (C)
<create-subscription> at time (D)

The actual values of startTime and stopTime are just
filter parameters.  Any startTime <= (B) will return
both logged entries.  If the stopTime is any time > (C)
then both entries are returned -- even if it > (D).

My concern (also raised by Randy) is that the agent
and manager clock skew will make it difficult for the
manager to give a value <= (D).

In this case better have a special value NOW. If C and D are very close due to the skew the manager might want to specify NOW, but might send down a stopTime < C.
