I'm working on an APP that uploads to AWS. I was worried about putting my AWS S3 id and secret into my XAP so I have built a WCF service that accepts the upload and then pushes it up to S3. Not optimal from a perf point of view so I'm thrilled to see this library.

But, that said, how safe is it to distribute a XAP with the AWS key and secret embedded. Couldn't somebody access them?

Just curious.

Cheers!
