The timestamp can be used to:
1) make sure we don't process an older manifest than one we've already processed
2) only accept recent manifests from the last 30 days
for 1: we can store previous timestamps in a pref and check if newTimestamp <= oldTimestamp then ignore
for 2: if new Date(newTimestamp) < new Date(Date.now() - 30*24*6060*1000) then ignore
There might be issues for 2 if the user's clock is wrong, but the manifest/signature are served over ssl which needs a somewhat accurate clock to begin with.

Read out the timestamp from the manifest and make sure it exists and is newer than the previous timestamp.
