The problem with that is that (afaik) running sub-process is not = allowed, which in turn means to compile CouchDB and Erlang and = SpiderMonkey and ICU statically into the .app binary.

Can you point to more resources about this. AFAIK the signing will be = optional and usually useful for end-user apps. Since CouchDBX is more = targeted at developers who are more likely to turn the signing feature = off or to a lower level, we can avoid dealing with that. Cheers Jan --=20
