RE: [dss] plans for next draft

Trevor,

I agree - this allows time-stamps to be created and verified as any other
object.

To be realy tidy should the description of <dss:timestamp> being within
<dss:signature> be part of that profile as a timestamp isn't just a normal
signature and should be linked to a specific request option.  This could be
used as the model for other "signature like" objects such as the court
filing digest info.
