If you want a bunch of people all signing the same file, have each signer do 
this:

gpg -u signer-X -o signer-X-signature --detach-sign file-to-sign

Then have them all send you their "file-to-sign.sig" files.  You create a file 
containing all of them:

cat signer-1-signature signer-2-signature signer-3-signature > file-to-sign.sig

Then anyone can verify file-to-sign.sig against the original file-to-sign and 
see all the signatures verified.
