Research direction
Start with the DSS timestamp documentation and the RFC 3161, rfc3161ng, asn1crypto, and pyasice references named in the issue. Clarify whether the intended result is documentation, RFC 3161 support, or both, then identify the relevant signxml entry points; done should include explicit certificate-trust and timestamp-validation procedures.
Written by the indexing model from the issue text.
Description
For timestamps, see: https://ec.europa.eu/digital-building-blocks/DSS/webapp-demo/doc/dss-documentation.html#Timestamps
For signer, support and document support for any RFC 3161 compatible timestamp authority server, with the default set to one of the entries in https://gist.github.com/Manouchehri/fd754e402d98430243455713efada710.
- A RFC 3161 client implementation that can be used for reference, but we won't be adding as a dependency: https://github.com/trbs/rfc3161ng
- https://github.com/wbond/asn1crypto supports ASN.1 primitives like GeneralizedTime for use with the RFC 3161 API (https://github.com/wbond/asn1crypto/blob/master/asn1crypto/tsp.py)
