Hi,

Adobe have made some changes to the policy file requirements in the
latest release of the flash player:

http://www.adobe.com/go/strict_policy_files

In the current public release of the player warnings are reported but I
think that in April a flash player will be released that will start
throwing errors when you try to access data from domains which don't
fulfil Adobe's new requirements.

So it would be great if the flickr devs can edit the crossdomain.xml
file on api.flickr.com following the instructions here:

http://www.adobe.com/devnet/flashplayer/articles/fplayer9_security_05.html#_Configuring_URL_Meta-Policies

So that all Flash which communicates with the Flickr API doesn't
suddenly break. Basically I think that adding a node like this:

<site-control permitted-cross-domain-policies="master-only&quot;/>

Should sort it.

Cheers,

Kelvin
