Nunit is open source and the source is hosted on sourceforge. The NUnit project provides a signing key (nunit.snk) as part of the source release. The hosted build that publishes the binary release uses this key to sign the assemblies. You can use the provided key for your own 'bug fix' builds from the source, or you can use a different key, or you can remove the key altogether. Publishing signed assemblies does not prevent you from modifying the source.
Signing assemblies increase the value of binary releases by creating a broader usage context. Melissa Kacher-2 wrote: > > Who would sign it? It's open source.
