Why would you be interested in an open source alternative?

So that the correctness can be audited by the community, so that I can self-host

If you have a one-time PDF that has to be signed, would you self-host to get it done? My hunch is that open-source solutions may only be useful to businesses. Wdyt?

I typically used email before signing up for Docusign. I pay for that now, despite only needing it a few times a year. Docusign is way easier than email. I even use it when someone sends me a PDF that needs multiple signatures

The hard part with self-hosting is when you have to go to court and prove the documents were signed, though perhaps having emails with attachments is enough?

Are you open to connecting over email? I'm considering digging deeper in the Open Source DocuSign rabbithole and would love to hear your thoughts on needs etc.

Sure, maybe we can collaborate. I have a collection of thoughts and capabilities.
