Make Convergence standalone #160

It would be more useful if we could run Convergence as, say, a SOCKS proxy, because then we could use any internet-facing program with Convergence. For example, package managers would benefit from being able to trust the repository servers reliably.

+1 the concept is simple and smart and can be used for a myriad of things. Package-managers but could also offer a reliable check for consuming server-server webservices.

I don't know about any similar applications that do the trick, Searching online for "distributed ssl verification" yielded no relevant results.
