Hi,

I am writing an implementation for interactive TLS certificate verification by
clients; I have a telepathy-spec draft branch for it here [1], and a first
implementation in Gabble here and here [2] [3].

The spec addition consists in basically two objects:

TLSCertificateCarrier [4]: a simple stateless object that carries TLS
certificate transient objects. It has only two methods, one for receiving a
certificate and one for sending it, along with some other useful properties.

TLSCertificate [5]: an object encapsulating a TLS certificate, with a state and
some other properties useful when doing handshakes, or doing XTLS (as I plan to
re-use this later for E2E encryption).
