Signing LWUIT based Apps

Hi there,

nearing the completion of a network intensive app based on LWUIT I'm
wondering whether there is any experience with code signing for LWUIT
apps yet.

I just remember a blog from Terrence Barr, I believe from Sept. 2007,
where he mentioned developer friendly changes to the Java Verified
Program. While one can still find links to his blog on Google , the blog
itself has vanished. That makes me believe there will nothing change to
this program anytime soon.

So, what will be the best way to go? As far as I know VeriSign
certificates are not accepted by most North American carriers, but
actually in Europe and Asia.

What is your experience?

Regards,
Stephan

As far as I found out there is no change with regards to Java Certified, still the same Mafia approach. I therefore went for my own code signing certificate and purchased a Thawte which is half price and quite well spread. .

Signing a LWUIT application with a Thawte certificate works fine (why shouldn't it ?).
