I wrote this while working on AES and QES support for Documenso. The digital signing stack is surprisingly tightly coupled today. Curious how others working with eIDAS infrastructure see this evolving.

Trust and Regulation like QTSP and all the other red tape

Noted. I think best practice signing is pretty learn free at this point, but it is good to remeber this notion

Good point. Cryptography can be a remedy here, but this is still a relevant factor IMO

Would you (or the company you work for) self-host a document signing solution if that were an option? I find it really weird, that there seems to be no obvious option to do so, in a space that so obviously has reason to.

Disclaimer: I recently started Documenso

If you want a bit more structure, a more opinionated framework like nextjs or similar could be for you

The larger mission would be to reduce reliance on one player that has 70+ percent of the market and decentralize trust. Centralized trust is going out of style fast..

Is CAcert still alive? I read the project kinda died

I also agree with you for what it's worth. Even it is somewhat possible, it should be WAY more open and free. Like SSL it's not a luxury competitve edge, but basic modern day infrastructure

Sorry you lost me on blockain. Also IF any blockchain were to be used to persist stuff like this it's the biggest, most decentralized.

i did not see anything about beeing a CA on first scan but if that's works it would be great

How can something so fundamentally math-based as Public-key cryptography be so heavyliy patented?
