Paul-André,


(text deleted)

This is another proof of the sound approach of LTANS which links "data certs" and "secure archived". Any "data cert" must not only be signed, but a detailed log entry must be archived in a secure way (non rewritable medium, hash linking). This mandatory combination was a major rationale of the openevidence project (the technical solution by then was a a combination of TSP RFC3061, DVCS RFC3029 and hash-linking)

There is no such mandatory comnbination for LTANS: data needs to be signed (and time-stamped) by the archive service, but the log is not intended to be used as an evidence.
