Thanks for the links.

FWIW, I still strongly believe Apple is totally in the wrong with any type of "notarization requirement" and should not be trying to force developers who already sign their code but distribute outside the Mac app store.

I can understand it for apps inside the Mac app store, but not independent apps that have nothing to do with the app store.

To complicate things it seems they only accept dmg, zip, and pkg packaging instead of the .tar.xz Sigil just moved to because of its much better compression.
