My question is thus: is there such a protocol, and such timestampting
authorities? This role could be assumed by the root CAs or by official time
holding bodies; note that this only need
eeding a PRNG to obtain unrelated
sequences (as needed when using montecarlo techniques fro statistical
analysis) and when one need to obtain UNPREDICTABLE sequences. Here we're
talking of the second case; your approach may be valid for the first case
but not at all for cryptographic activities.

authoritative optinion of RMS) with indication to people willing to relea
