I suspect that many users simply click on SourceForge's "Download" button
and therefore don't notice signature files (and would not notice checksums
in other files).

I'm not sure if there are many Windows users who know how to verify
(unsigned) checksums but don't know how to verify signatures.

Anyway, the SF downloads are mirrored on privoxy.org now and the mirror
is the first download link on the homepage. As there's no fancy client
OS detection at the moment, users will see the binaries and their signatures
(if there are any) at the same time. This could increase the number of
signature downloads which could increase the number of signature
verifications.
