First, let me point out that the RFC only recommends an algorithm to verify certificates and signatures on the current date, but not at dates in the past.


I don't want to strech the whole discussion any longer, but if you are actually interested in that sort of things, then have a look at RFC3126, "Electronic Signature Formats for long term electronic signatures".

This is an informational RFC, but the ETSI TS 101 733 document it's based on is a european standard for long term signatures.
Which requirements have also been included inside the XML XAdES format.
Which explains why european institutions are currently investing in that format.

Thanks for the reference. I am indeed interested and will be reading up on it.
