In my opinion - sha sums would be appreciated and a good approach for 
all builds.

I happen to work as a support and the company had to distribute java 
applets (over the web) to OSX users. Needless to say - gatekeeper would 
always complain. However - even if the company would like to sign the 
applets - there is no way to do so.

In my opinion - mac users should grow up (I am not trying to offend 
anybody). I don't think it is realistic everybody to accept what Apple 
proposes (or dictates). At least there is a workaround (they didn't lock 
the system completely). On a long term - it is a matter of choice. And 
each one of us makes such when we buy a computer and install an os on it.

Kudos that Ardour is being developed for many platforms regardless if 
they are proprietary or free.
