Description Markus Wernig 2014-10-10 19:39:16 UTC
In order to digitally sign a PDF document in a way that is legally binding, it is required by most countries' standards to embed a RFC 3161 timestamp in the PDF signature, as specified in RFC 3126 and the PDF standard.

This is a request to implement that functionality in LibreOffice, which creates PDF documents and is able to digitally sign them (currently work in progress).

In order to obtain a timestamp during signing, the URL of a timestamping service must be available.

So in addition this URL should be configurable by the user in the Options tab (presumably under "Security").

It should be mentioned that the fund raising of wilhelmtux was successful. 
Should there be any surplus from the current fundraising they will use it for getting this bug in LibreOffice fixed:

http://wilhelmtux.ch/?MID=10&PID=90

So maybe one should give them some extra money ...

I've tried to split up this request into smaller ones that can be worked on more or less independently.

So we can use this as a tracker bug for the entire feature, which may take more time to finish.
