FWIW, I created this JIRA issue to track the decision.

    Hi Allen, Alex and Builders,
    I must say that I also think like Alex, who's to say that the builds
    done on a CI server are any worse than those done locally by PMC's.
    
    I understand that CI server is far from a clean room environment, but
    take a look at all the software you have installed on your machine and
    call that cleaner with a straight face. If signing is done locally by
    PMC's who very the build, in a yet to be determined fashion, what's
    the real risk here?
    
    I would very much like to have as little friction to releases for
    Apache Camel as possible.

be even better.  And we don't have to build from clean if we have a way to 
verify the binaries.  There are new efforts going on towards creating 
reproducible binaries that allow for such verification.
