Can we have some sort of a way to have checksums, so we can verify that it's the correct version?

I think he means MD5 checksum of the ISOs/Zips in order to ensure the binaries are not corrupted or modified.

Why MD5 if you can use SHA1?

If you go to https://sourceforge.net/projects/reacto ... OS/0.3.14/ and click the more information icon, you'll see the SHA-1 and MD5 checksums.
