I have looked at Internet X.509 Public Key Infrastructure Time-Stamp
Protocol (TSP)
http://www.ietf.org/rfc/rfc3161.txt
But I haven't seen anyone saying how or whether SOAP based
communications makes use of
(or more likely reinvents) the above service.
WSS does have a time stamp element, but I don't think it is geared to
provide independent assurance that data existed before a given time like
RFC 3161 does.
Should we reference RFC 3161? Maybe ask WSS TC if they plan on taking
this topic up sometime?
Anyway I don't think there is any standard that has a lot of traction
yet. Google showed that
there could be some products out there that provide RFC 3161 support.

available, and a standard has been defined for their use and expression,
these standards, technologies and services will be evaluated and
considered for use in later versions of this specification."
