> The SP currently accepts metadata from a remote publisher for use prior to checking validUntil.  This means that if for some reason it is exposed to expired metadata then it will replace previously downloaded metadata even though it is still valid.
> It would be better to perform the validUntil check (and other similar checks which might cause an aggregate to be largely rejected) before replacing previously downloaded metadata.
