As you might know (http://fabien.potencier.org/article/73/signing-project-releases), all Symfony releases are now signed (it has been the case since June 2013). It means that Git tag are signed, but it also means that we publish (https://github.com/sensiolabs/checksums) signed SHA1 for files installed by Composer.

It would be great if we could have an article explaining why checking the integrity of what users download is important and how to do it properly.
