I just checked out the Flickr.com guidelines
They seem to expect you to link to your own photos not to those of others.
I did see something about this on a forum but can't find it now. If you have a flickr account they might block you in some way I guess. Whose bandwidth would it count against? Might be a problem for those with free account.

First International Workshop on
Emerging Trends in FLOSS Research and Development
"Feeding Back the Communities"
http://opensource.ucc.ie/icse2007/
Minneapolis, Minnesota - USA
In conjunction with 29th Int. Conf. on Software Engineering
http://web4.cs.ucl.ac.uk/icse07/
Overview
-------------------
Much software engineering research relates to open source in one or other way, as when software engineering prototypes and tools that are offered under open source licenses and empirical studies which are based on mining huge amounts of available open source project data. Many open source projects have born and nurtured in academic environments. Despite these clearly strong relationships, the software engineering community (both academia and industry) and the open source communities have not fulfilled the potential of a closer collaboration. These communities need to be brought together. For example:
- software engineering researchers need to find out effective ways to share results with open source developers
- open source development and evolution challenge classical good software engineering approaches, models and practice and may provide new insights
- open source offers a rich phenomenon and ad vast amount of data but open source developers participation in empirical studies is needed in contextualisation of empirical results
- open source developers may benefit from getting to know the software engineering state-of-the-art, not having to "re-invent the wheel" in their projects
The Workshop on ``Emerging Trends in FLOSS Research and Development" is based on the growing interest of researchers practitioners and software industries on Free/Libre Open Source Software (FLOSS): its scope is discussing the phenomenon of global open source software engineering and how to reach out to the open source community.
Workshop Objectives & Topics of Interest
-------------------
The goal of this workshop is to bring together academic researchers, industry members and FLOSS developers, for the purpose of discussing how to improve the collaboration in research (including communication of
results) among researchers, practitioners and FLOSS communities of software developers, including:
- how researchers should get their research ideas used by the FLOSS community;
- tools produced in academic research which were successfully diffused in FLOSS communities;
- approaches, techniques and tools originally invented for and tested in academic or industrial environments and used successfully in the open source community, and their results;
- creation and sustenance of a FLOSS community, triggered by research results, or a commercial initiative;
- similarities and differences between proprietary and FLOSS-oriented software engineering research and how to bring them together;
- reports on traditional approaches of software engineering (including requirements engineering and testing) which were successfully established into FLOSS communities;
- relevance of empirical studies on FLOSS software to the larger software engineering community.
To this end, we invite position papers presenting position papers, experience reports, case studies, emergent research results and key research questions, which serve to report on feedback obtained from or given to FLOSS communities, and to improve the collaboration, communication and the impact of FLOSS products, methods, tools and organizational structures in a variety of application domains.
Relevance
----------------------
FLOSS is now well recognized as an important research area within both the Software Engineering and Information Systems fields, as evidenced by the growing number of related journal papers, conference papers, workshops and seminars. As FLOSS development continues to grow and become an evermore pervasive and global approach to the development of dependable software through non-traditional means (i.e., does not simply follow the software engineering paradigm found in textbooks), this ICSE workshop will be an appropriate place for leading FLOSS and SE scholars to come together to discuss and exchange their research work in progress. This workshop should also serve as a bridge between the ACM/IEEE (ICSE) and OSS research communities, and should provide an opportunity for the Software Engineering community to interact with and learn more about the advances of research into FLOSS development and communities.
Submission Process
------------------
Submissions are maximum five pages long (max). Papers must be original and previously unpublished. Submissions which include cases studies of successful dissemination of results, and feedback received and/or given to the communities, will be given the highest priority.
Accepted papers and other materials for the Proceedings must be revised
to incorporate reviewers comments and to conform to IEEE style
guidelines defined at: http://www.computer.org/portal/site/ieeecs/menuitem.c5efb9b8ade9096b8a9ca0108bcd45f3/index.jsp?&pName=ieeecs_level1&path=ieeecs/publications/cps&file=cps_format1.xml&xsl=generic.xsl&;
Templates for submissions are found at:
* Latex: http://opensource.ucc.ie/icse2007/style/latex/
* Word: http://opensource.ucc.ie/icse2007style/word/
Accepted file formats are Postscript and PDF. The details of paper and data submission process are available at: http://opensource.ucc.ie/icse2007/cfp.html
Submission of papers
--------------------
* http://cross.lincoln.ac.uk/floss2007/openconf/openconf.php
Each paper will be reviewed by the program committee based on their technical content and their relevance to the scope of the workshop, as well as its ability to stimulate discussion. At least one author of accepted papers is required to register and attend the workshop. Prior to the workshop the accepted papers will be posted on the workshop web
page at:
http://opensource.ucc.ie/icse2007
This is to facilitate a more fruitful discussion during the workshop.
