SINCE param

[Jud]

Is there a SINCE param that will allow me to ask the API for actions
that have occurred _since_ a given timestamp?

[Mark Tabry]

Currently the only call that supports since is glue/recent. I will update the API documentation to reflect this, as it seems to have been left out.

Can you tell me what other calls you'd want to have since on and why?

for stream based APIs, SINCE allows for nice optimization on the
calling code. you want it to alleviate having to maintain/track a
pointer in the calling code *and* to fill in gaps when the client code
goes offline. if I go down for two hours, I'd like to get everything
SINCE my last stash of the timestamp .should I wait for API doc rev,
or can you tell me how to use it on glue/recent here?

I've updated the API documentation.

glue/recent is still limited to the 250 most recent records, a limit
on which SINCE will not have an effect. However, it will remove the
need for filtering duplicate data by if you pass it the timestamp of
the last record seen when polling for newer records.
