Looks like Kickstarter isn't done looking at the Zano failure. I got this email from them:

We have asked Mark to look into the history of the project, how the funds were spent, and whether there were things that could have been done differently. He has written a post explaining the assignment here.

This will be an independent report — Kickstarter will not have any influence over what he writes. Upon completion of his research sometime next month, his findings will first be shared with you and then with the public. We believe that a full account of what happened will be helpful to you and to the wider community of hardware creators.

We encourage you to cooperate with Mark and this project. We have urged the Zano creators to do the same. He has set up a special email address for this project: zano@meharris.com. He says that while he may not reply to all messages, he will read them and is eager to hear from backers.

Thank you,

Kickstarter
