Comanche was first written by Bolot Kerimbaev (just found him on
Facebook the other day btw), but then extensively rewritten by Stephen
Pair, who once in a while may appear on the lists, but is not active.
Since then me and Giovanni Corriga have more or less just "watched over
it", and lately Giovanni only.

I honestly don't recall the exact thoughts - but published did indeed
imply that it was "safe for consumption". So it was more a kind of
assertion from the owner.
The SHA1 checksum of the contents was meant to make the server side
cache work properly. So if a URL goes stale the SMLoader notices a bad
checksum and can instead fall back on the server side cached contents
from the time of the creation of the release (at which point the SM
server actually downloads the URL and puts it in the cache, just like
the client side SM does).

Personally I don't care - Giovanni may decide. I could even consider
transferring this entry to someone else, like Giovanni.
