And this just in... Flickr is now down because for the past two days
it has been displaying the wrong images. Although this seems to have
been limited to small images, there is no reason to see why other
technical difficulties couldn't cause license data and images to be
mismatched.

I'm glad the review bot compares the MD5sum of our copy and theirs. :)
