MuEditor-OSX being flagged on Virus Total

[paul-cossey]

What were you trying to do?

Checking for malicious software.

What steps did you take to trigger the issue?

Not really a bug, but...

Before we install new software/updates on customer computers we automatically check the downloads with https://www.virustotal.com

Both of your latest releases are being flagged by a couple of vendors. I think they're false positives, but you may wish to work with them so that Mu doesn't get flagged in future.
