A reader of this specification might presume that the authors are not aware of
the 30+ years of prior art around time stamping and cryptographic log services
-such as opentimestamps.org,
-cryptographically signing a transaction log, blockchains and decentralized
-ledgers, Tahoe LAFS, did:peer, Trusted DID Web's log, did:dht, IPFS, and other
-technologies that provide technologies similar to what this specification
-provides. We probably need to have a section highlighting all the prior art in
-the space and what sets this specification apart. Readers of this specification
-are urged to provide citations to prior art that they feel apply.
