[OT] Gatekeeper

[Peter Haworth]

Thanks Andrew. I will have to change my app then.  I guess I can put some
version-dependant code at startup to move the prefs file to it's new
location if necessary.

Don't like the sound of the sandbox!  I guess I should look into that
before making a final decision on whether I want this thing in the app
store or not.
