By the way, just a suggestion, maybe you could publish the
SHA-256 checksums of release tarballs instead of MD5?

Please also publish the exact length in bytes.
This is worth _more_ than expanding the width of the checksum,
because it is easier (much easier) to produce checksum collisions
by extending the length.



It's not signed (by PGP/GPG, for example), is it? I realized that it is not.(!)
(I saw no trace of signature files for verification on my local PC.)

I know all the pitfalls of signing by open keys, but it still adds a layer of confidence, much better than a single checksum as noted above.

Thank you again for sharing a great piece of software.

TIA
