Yes, milliseconds since 0000 UTC would be OK.  Maybe you 
should send BOTH this quantity AND a double with seconds 
since Unix epoch (which I would actually prefer).  I don't 
see the conversion issue as a big deal; little-endian to 
big-endian copnversion is trivial, and doesn't nearly 
everybody use IEEE floating point these days?
