I'd like to download and install the wallet but would like to see checksums at a minimum published by Dan first.

It's industry best practice to publish checksum / PGP sign off on wallet downloads, see Bitcoin Core:

@SYNECHIST

Please could you address btcsql concern - I agree with him its standard practice and nearly all software uses checksum validation as a minimum (Nearly all Microsoft MSDN downloads use it).

It would definitely be in line with "secure private transactions"

I understand Dan is probably busy coding - and perhaps will be able to address this concern when he has some time.

I would hate that FUD is spread about this, when its something easy to resolve.

Thanks.

You hit the nail on the head. Also I seriously don't think this as much of a big deal as problems that other coins have.
