Hi I'd love to see the list going again and getting more use. I think my reason for not using it is that it isn't being used so I forget about it, it needs traffic to gain some traction and remind people it exists. I'll make sure that I post some questions when they come up, see if we can get it moving again. As a start, I've just watched this brilliant explanation of why an open crossdomain policy file is bad, I'd really recommend it to any app testers. http://www.irongeek.com/i.php?page=videos/derbycon4/t505-swf-seeking-lazy-admin-for-cross-domain-action-seth-art Robin PS, as I've just found out, the list doesn't like MIME encoded mails so if you are sending through Gmail make sure you set the mail to plain text. I can't find a way to do this through the Android Gmail client though so if anyone knows how please share.
