Resurrecting an old topic...
I just noticed when I loaded a new machine with CPython 2.7, that it
is signed by the Python Software Foundation.
Do you not suppose that, if asked, they would also be willing to sign
other implementations?

Yes, I believe they would - there was a brief discussion at PyCon, but
I haven't made a formal request yet.

There is CAcert.org, who will issue a certificate which by fiddling IIRC can
be made into a code signing certificate. But while CAcert.org is a *
recognized* certificate authority, they are not a *trusted* authority
(particularly, they are not trusted by Microsoft) so it's a lot of work to

It's easiest if someone donates a personal certificate, which then
puts their name on the releases (as is done with TortoiseSVN and
TortoiseHG, for example). However, without a sponsor organisation it's
very hard to get hold of a trustworthy certificate (which a personal
one is generally not).
I can reach out to my company, we are a CA, to see if they'd sponsor a cert?
Sounds like folk aren't much interested in that though.
