Strong naming

MahApps will no longer be strong-named beginning with this version. #3029

Why?

Strong-named assemblies are only useful in some rare scenarios. If you need strong-named assembly then you can compile the source by yourself ore use the Strong Namer from Daniel Plaisted @dsplaisted or Strong-Name Signer from Werner van Deventer @brutaldev.

More informations about the reason of this decision can be found here:

• Still Strong-Naming your Assemblies? You do know it’s 2016, right?
• XAML Behaviors UWP Managed 1.1.0
• Strong-Named Assemblies
