It should also be clarify that ArchiveTimeStamp OID was

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           : CMS Advanced Electronic Signatures (CAdES)
      Author(s)       : J. Ross, et al.
      Filename        : draft-ietf-smime-cades-04.txt
      Pages           : 132
      Date            : 2007-9-5
      
This document 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 the validity of the signature). 

  The format can be considered as an extension to RFC 3852 [4] and 
  RFC 2634 [5], where, when appropriate additional signed and 
  unsigned attributes have been defined.  

  The contents of this Informational RFC amounts to a 
  transposition of the ETSI TS 101 733 V.1.7.3 (CMS Advanced 
  Electronic Signatures - CAdES) [TS101733] and is technically 
  equivalent to it.

Internet-Drafts are also available by anonymous FTP. Login

Internet-Drafts can also be obtained by e-mail.

Send a message to:
      mailserv(_at_)ietf(_dot_)org(_dot_)
In the body type:
      "FILE /internet-drafts/draft-ietf-smime-cades-04.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.
