Re: launcher/demos

That's not how certs work. Adam got the XWT Foundation cert from 
Thawte, Verisign, etc. He then used it to sign XWT. Emile would get his 
own cert and do his own signing. That's why the latest binaries and 
jars are unsigned.

IIRC Adam also gave the okay to distribute XWT Foundation signed 
binaries now.
