Hi,
The stake pool operators need a clock or countdown timer to keep track of when the epochs are going to change in order to set parameters in jcli, or finalize decisions before the next epoch begins. the clock or countdown timer would convert slots to human friendly time.
For example is there are 43000 slots per epoch and 1 epoch is 24 hours, then slot 1 means there are 23 hours 59 minutes and 58 seconds left. Ask he slots update and vary in time, the clock would update. It does not have to be a super precise clock, just something to give pool operators an estimate.
Plus, the good thing about sorting out this clock/countdown timer on the test net, is that if it works you can port it over to Daedalus to help out the hundreds of millions of people who will be staking.
Cheers! And thank you all for the hard work, I greatly appreciate it.
