Hi, Many thanks, Yosem, Brian and Nathan for this initiative!
> Any sharing that needs to be done can use public Google Docs > or Dropbox links. This may be a silly question, but how exactly does downloading something from a a Dropbox link differ from downloading an email attachment? The basic issue of potentially malicious binaries from a potentially spoofed source is still there, isn't it? Unless I am overlooking something (which may very well be the case), isn't the main issue here about trusting binaries -- regardless whether they are sent as attachments, or as links to some download site? Just thinking aloud here... perhaps the policy could be extended to encourage sharing information in plain text/html whenever possible?
