Russ,
Nonetheless, I guess a client might choose to rely on cert validation by a
log, although
one should do so only if one has confidence that the log (or a set of logs
that all agree the
cert was valid) can do a better job than the client. Given experience with
some browsers, that
might not be a bad idea ;-).
And so the TRANS notary becomes a trusted critical component rather
than a transparent notary whose actions are completely constrained by
the Harber-Stornetta block chain...
trusted by a client IF it elects to do so. as I said, given the performance of _some_ browsers, this is not necessarily a bad idea, and it would be up to the user to make this decision.
