A New Internet-Draft is available from the on-line Internet-Drafts
directories. This draft is a work item of the S/MIME Mail Security
Working Group of the IETF.

        Title           : Electronic Signature Formats for long term electronic
                          signature
        Author(s)       : D. Pinkas, J. Ross, N. Pope
        Filename        : draft-ietf-smime-esformats-02.txt
        Pages           : 75
        Date            : 29-Nov-00

The informational RFC defines the format of an electronic signature
that can remain valid over long periods. This includes evidence as to
its validity even if the signer or verifying party later attempts to
deny (i.e. repudiates, see [ISONR]) the validity of the signature.
The format can be considered as an extension to RFC 2630 [CMS]
and RFC 2634 [ESS], where, when appropriate additional signed and
unsigned attributes have been defined.

The contents of this Informational RFC is technically equivalent to
ETSI ES 201 733 V.1.1.3 Copyright (C). Individual copies of this
ETSI deliverable can be downloaded from http://www.etsi.org

Internet-Drafts are also available by anonymous FTP. Login with the
username "anonymous" and a password of your e-mail address. After
logging in, type
        "cd internet-drafts" and then
        "get draft-ietf-smime-esformats-02.txt".

A list of Internet-Drafts directories can be found in
http://www.ietf.org/shadow.html

Internet-Drafts can also be obtained by e-mail.
Send a message to:
        mailserv () ietf org.
In the body type:
        "FILE /internet-drafts/draft-ietf-smime-esformats-02.txt".

NOTE:   The mail server at ietf.org can return the document in
        MIME-encoded form by using the "mpack" utility.  To use this
        feature, insert the command "ENCODING mime" before the
        "FILE" command.  To decode the response(s), you will need
        "munpack" or a MIME-compliant mail reader.  Different MIME-
        compliant mail readers exhibit different behavior, especially
        when dealing with "multipart" MIME messages (i.e. documents
        which have been split up into multiple messages), so check your
        local documentation on how to manipulate these messages.

Below is the data which will enable a MIME compliant mail reader
implementation to automatically retrieve the ASCII version of the
Internet-Draft:

Content-type: message/external-body;
        access-type="mail-server";
        server="mailserv () ietf org"

Content-Type: text/plain
Content-ID:     <20001129114644.I-D () ietf org>
