It should be noted that as of the new Flash Player release in April ALL socket connections (even on the same domain) require a socket-based policy file.

Nice one, but Socket class still suffers from lack of write progress status (Adobe bug base: SDK-12277), so you cannot send larger files/byte chunks:

Very neat, nice basic overview. I just wish there weren’t the sandboxing, it means any client you make basically has to be connecting to your server. You can’t host a generic FTP client that lets you upload to any site. I understand why they do it that way, but it’s annoying nonetheless.
