On a technical side: A few years ago Mr. J. Wittenberger presented their
approach for a distributed settlement for document storage at our
conference: http://www.askemos.org/
See his paper: http://www.askemos.org/A04538159df3258ea68544531bea1c006

"The real potential for using Askemos is for identity and time stamp
services, information management in public administration, libraries
attaching meta data and archives. The "200 year software". But german
tax law, for instance, has storage requirements, which make Askemos
interesting even for private persons. Also activist groups,
not-for-profits and people who need privacy and reliability in a world
becoming increasingly more hostile to their activities could gain a
benefit."
