-<p>It is important that you verify the integrity of the downloaded

-The PGP signatures can be verified using PGP or GPG.  First
-download the <a href="http://www.apache.org/dist/ofbiz/KEYS">KEYS</a>
-as well as the asc signature file for the relevant
-distribution.  Make sure you get these files from the <a
-href="http://www.apache.org/dist/ofbiz/">main distribution
-directory</a>, rather than from a mirror. Then verify the signatures
-using
-<code>
-% pgpk -a KEYS<br />
-% pgpv apache-ofbiz-09.04.zip.asc<br />
-</code>
-<em>or</em><br />
-<code>
-% pgp -ka KEYS<br />
-% pgp apache-ofbiz-09.04.zip.asc<br />
-</code>
-<em>or</em><br />
-<code>
-% gpg --import KEYS<br />
-% gpg --verify apache-ofbiz-09.04.zip.asc
-</code>
-Alternatively, you can verify the MD5 signature on the files.  A
-unix program called md5 or md5sum is
-included in many unix distributions.  It is also available as part of
-<a href="http://www.gnu.org/software/textutils/textutils.html">GNU
-Textutils</a>.  Windows users can get binary md5 programs from <a
-href="http://www.fourmilab.ch/md5/">here</a>, <a
-href="http://www.pc-tools.net/win32/freeware/console/">here</a>, or
-<a href="http://www.slavasoft.com/fsum/">here</a>. An MD5 signature
-consists of 32 hex characters, and a SHA1 signature consists of 40
-hex characters. Ensure your generated signature string matches the
-signature string published in the files above.</p>
