	Title		: Syntax for binding documents with time stamps
	Author(s)	: A. Santoni
	Filename	: draft-santoni-timestampeddata-00.txt
	Pages		: 8
	Date		: 2007-7-5
	
This document describes a syntax which can be used to bind a generic 
document (or any set of data, not necessarily protected by means of 
cryptographic techniques) to one or more time-stamp tokens obtained 
for that document, where "time-stamp token" has the meaning defined 
in [TSP]. 

Whereas digital time stamping has become the standard technique for 
proving the existence of a document before a certain point in time, 
there is not a generally accepted syntax for keeping together one 
document and the associated time-stamps in a single "bundle". Such a 
syntax would facilitate keeping track of which time-stamps belong to 
what documents and would therefore improve the efficiency of 
timestamp-aware applications. 

This document proposes a simple syntax based on [CMS], by defining a 
new contentType.

Send a message to:
	mailserv@ietf.org.
In the body type:
	"FILE /internet-drafts/draft-santoni-timestampeddata-00.txt".
	
NOTE:	The mail server at ietf.org can return the document in
	MIME-encoded form by using the "mpack" utility.  To use this
	feature, insert the command "ENCODING mime" before the "FILE"
	command.  To decode the response(s), you will need "munpack" or
	a MIME-compliant mail reader.  Different MIME-compliant mail readers
	exhibit different behavior, especially when dealing with
	"multipart" MIME messages (i.e. documents which have been split
	up into multiple messages), so check your local documentation on
	how to manipulate these messages.

Below is the data which will enable a MIME compliant mail reader
implementation to automatically retrieve the ASCII version of the
Internet-Draft.
