There isn't too much documentation.  We have an app that checks the sigs:
https://cwiki.apache.org/confluence/display/FLEX/MD5Checker+Instruction+Manual

We used to run an hourly job, but recent AIR SDKs became so big that the job 
would run out of memory because the server it runs on has limited memory, so we 
don't run the job anymore.  So these days, I wait until someone complains and 
then run the job locally.  Having more folks willing to run the job would be 
great.

As the wiki article mentions, MD5Checker updates a file on the Apache Flex 
website.  The url is 
http://flex.apache.org/installer/sdk-installer-config-4.0.xml
The source is in Subversion at:  
https://svn.apache.org/repos/asf/flex/site/trunk/content/installer/sdk-installer-config-4.0.xml

MD5Checker downloads the file and updates it on your computer.  If you submit 
updates as a patch or entire file, hopefully a committer will commit it for 
you, and if you do this often, we'll probably make you a committer and grant 
you rights to commit it yourself.

If you look in the history of the file, you will see where it would include 
beta versions.  I don't remember the format and don't want to take the time to 
go find a revision and document how it worked, but maybe a volunteer can do 
that.  I would trust commits from me that include beta versions.  I think 
others would try on occasion and not quite get it right.

Thanks,
-Alex

    Is there any guidance on how to update the installer / signatures ?
    Would be happy to help out in the future if I knew where to look...
