        Title           : Collectively Witnessing Log Servers in CT

Abstract:
   This document proposes a backward-compatible extension to CT enabling
   log servers to obtain compact collective signatures from any number
   of well-known "witness" servers, which clients can check without
   gossip to verify that log server records have been widely witnessed.
   Collective signatures proactively protect clients from man-in-the-
   middle attackers who may have stolen the private keys of one or more
   log servers, even if the attacker controls the client's network
   access, the client is unwilling to gossip for privacy reasons, or the
   client does not wish to incur the network bandwidth and/or latency
   costs of gossip.
