Rob & MarcW, I am also seeing both of these issues. The work around that I use for the "My gadgets" tool not working is by taking the cache off from the embed gadget url by appending a "&nocache=9" to the URL. Example: http://www.gmodules.com/ig/creator?synd=open&url=http%3A//www.believer.com/outreach/versetoday.xml&nocache=9
I still haven't figured how to update the cache to all the other iGoogle users. When I make changes to my gadgets, I've noticed that only about 70% of the iGoogle users are seeing the updates & the remaining users gradually get their cache updated (over a period of months). At one point there was a cache busting code snippet you could put in your gadget to push out the updates to all the users, but I don't recall what that was & never needed to use it before. I'll let you know if I figure that out.
