On a slightly related note:
  * dist.libuv.org is HTTP-only
  * tarballs are not GPG-signed[0]

So basically there is no integrity check viable for tarballs.

I'm particularly interested in the second point. As tags are already signed by
whoever cut a specific release, can a detached signature by the same key
also be uploaded?

I plan to work on this shortly. I'm not sure we want to use the tags as releases, since we might want to add more stuff to the release tarballs (the autoconf generated files, for example) so I think I'll go for signing the tarball we generate and uploading the signature as well to dist.libuv.org. Hopefully I can get this done by the next release.


Cheers,
