Re: [stem-dev] latest build of STEM V4 for macOS is "damaged" after download

There is no defect. The latest build of STEM for macOS is fine. The problem appeared after upgrading to Mac OSx Mojave
Mojave has new security control featuresthat cause the erroneous "Corrupt" warning.

New doc has been added to the STEM installation instructions for Mac users.
