Shivaram, thanks! Just a clarification: On Fri, Oct 07, 2005 at 09:31:12AM -0700, Shivaram Mysore wrote: > * Jose: Update on future Security WG activities - W3C is looking into some > proposals that may be needed to provide better interop, fix holes in > specifications,etc. Some of the ideas floated are: Security best > practices including Security considerations WG, Time stamping (DSS WG > also has work in this area; DSS is also producing a WD).

I mentioned time stamping, but I'm waiting to see the results of DSS timestamping and how they will integrate hash linking before considering it more seriously. I saw a recent paper presentation describing both conceptual and implementation problems with the IETF PKIX timestamping draft and thy mentioned that DSS timestamping is based on that IETF draft, but a la XML, so it would have similar problems. I've not gone more deeply into this yet to have my own opinion. -jose
