He can sign it with a certificate in his own company's name. If I
signed a project, it wouldn't mean anything to the end users -- they
don't know who I am.
The whole thing is a rip off.

It is a fact Chip, when we have to pay a lot of money to buy a certified Digital Signature it is quite a costly deal, they just give us a certificate which we use to sign our personal used documents, some thing new can be done, to improve all this.And when it comes to the verification of the signatures what facilities they are providing, nothing but a useless thing to have.
