+=head1 DESCRIPTION
+
+Signed Certificate Timestamps (SCTs) are defined by RFC 6962, Section 3.2.
+They constitute a promise by a Certificate Transparency (CT) log to publicly
+record a certificate. By cryptographically verifying that a log did indeed issue
+an SCT, some confidence can be gained that the certificate is publicly known.
+
+An internal representation of an SCT can be created in one of two ways.
+The first option is to create a blank SCT, using SCT_new(), and then populate
+it using:
+
+=over 4
+
+=item * SCT_set_version() to set the SCT version.
+
+Only SCT_VERSION_V1 is currently supported.
+
+=item * SCT_set_log_entry_type() to set the type of certificate the SCT was issued for:
+
+B<CT_LOG_ENTRY_TYPE_X509> for a normal certificate.
+B<CT_LOG_ENTRY_TYPE_PRECERT> for a pre-certificate.
+
+=item * SCT_set0_log_id() or SCT_set1_log_id() to set the LogID of the CT log that the SCT came from.
+
+The former takes ownership, whereas the latter makes a copy.
+See RFC 6962, Section 3.2 for the definition of LogID.
+
+=item * SCT_set_timestamp() to set the time the SCT was issued (epoch time in milliseconds).
+
+=item * SCT_set_signature_nid() to set the NID of the signature.
+
+=item * SCT_set0_signature() or SCT_set1_signature() to set the raw signature value.
+
+The former takes ownership, whereas the latter makes a copy.
+
+=item * SCT_set0_extensions() or B<SCT_set1_extensions> to provide SCT extensions.
+
+The former takes ownership, whereas the latter makes a copy.
+
+=back
+
+Alternatively, the SCT can be pre-populated from the following data using
+SCT_new_from_base64():
+
+=over 4
+
+=item * The SCT version (only SCT_VERSION_V1 is currently supported).
+
+=item * The LogID (see RFC 6962, Section 3.2), base64 encoded.
+
+=item * The type of certificate the SCT was issued for:
+
+B<CT_LOG_ENTRY_TYPE_X509> for a normal certificate.
+B<CT_LOG_ENTRY_TYPE_PRECERT> for a pre-certificate.
+
+=item * The time that the SCT was issued (epoch time in milliseconds).
+
+=item * The SCT extensions, base64 encoded.
+
+=item * The SCT signature, base64 encoded.
+
+=back
+
+SCT_set_source() can be used to record where the SCT was found
+(TLS extension, X.509 certificate extension or OCSP response). This is not
+required for verifying the SCT.
+
+=head1 NOTES
+
+Some of the setters return int, instead of void. These will all return 1 on
+success, 0 on failure. They will not make changes on failure.
+
+All of the setters will reset the validation status of the SCT to
+SCT_VALIDATION_STATUS_NOT_SET (see L<SCT_validate(3)>).
+
+SCT_set_source() will call SCT_set_log_entry_type() if the type of
+certificate the SCT was issued for can be inferred from where the SCT was found.
+For example, an SCT found in an X.509 extension must have been issued for a pre-
+certificate.
+
+SCT_set_source() will not refuse unknown values.
+
+=head1 RETURN VALUES
+
+SCT_set_version() returns 1 if the specified version is supported, 0 otherwise.
+
+SCT_set_log_entry_type() returns 1 if the specified log entry type is supported, 0 otherwise.
+
+SCT_set0_log_id() and B<SCT_set1_log_id> return 1 if the specified LogID is a
+valid SHA-256 hash, 0 otherwise. Additionally, B<SCT_set1_log_id> returns 0 if
+malloc fails.
+
+B<SCT_set_signature_nid> returns 1 if the specified NID is supported, 0 otherwise.
+
+B<SCT_set1_extensions> and B<SCT_set1_signature> return 1 if the supplied buffer
+is copied successfully, 0 otherwise (i.e. if malloc fails).
+
+B<SCT_set_source> returns 1 on success, 0 otherwise.
