Important change in the traffic accounting system (customer and storage nodes)

hi… just wanted to ask some questions…

  1. Why can’t the order expire immediately once it is fulfilled?

  2. Regarding the timezone, why can’t the storj node just make all nodes use UTC, regardless of the system’s timing?.. display wise, it can be adjusted to display by user’s selection, but system’ handling will always stick to UTC.
    e.g. Start of monthly period follows UTC, daily calculations follow UTC etc. Should user choose to change the timezone on the report UI, a notification can always be displayed that the calculations follows UTC… Could even just display the exact time based on their selected timezone. (their start of the month probably starts a few hours earlier/later than others)

How does a storage node submit an order that is expired right now?

We are using UTC. That is not the probleme here.
