I agree it is a requirement that will be needed in some instances. My guess
is that it can be provided by adding a suitable signature to a message that
is signed by some trusted signer.

We can include this in the list of topics for Orlando.

Subject: Requirements and time-stamping


Dear all,

Reading the requirements documents, and more precisely the part
on security, I realised the other day that we do not say anything on
time-stamping.Certainly this is a security service including digital
signatures
on some data time element, but the fact is that some work has been done
in defining time-stamping protocols among users and time-stamping
authorities
for certain areas, and I wonder if we should explicitely mention this
service in
the security section....
I have to apologise for the delay in sending this message, but after the 
Christmas holidays (which in Spain  are two weeks for Universities) I
have got the flu and have to stay at home for amost one week ...

Another thing is that my understanding is that the call meeting will take
place 
on January the 21st. Am I rigth?

Regards.

Juan Carlos.
