Just for the record, the Powerhouse Museum has created a group on Flickr for people to post their photographs of places seen in the Tyrrell Collection (the collection with the old PD images being put online). It is called "Tyrrell Today", and while there are few members there are already four very nice photographs, one under a Commons-compatible license. They seem to be actively searching for images of Sydney today and inviting their authors to post them to the group.
Oh, awesome.
Question: How should we tag images that come from Flickr's "The Commons"? Flickr calls them "No known copyright restrictions".
PD-old?
Should the ones from LOC go to PD-old, and Powerhouse Museum to PD-Australia?
Or should we create a new "no known copyright restrictions"? I tend to think not, unless we restrict to only images from institutional sources (or even just Flickr's "The Commons").
Flinfo ( http://commons.wikimedia.org/wiki/User:Flominator/Flinfo ) now makes the Powerhouse pictures PD-Australia, so does Magnus` bot.

And mine (http://tools.wikimedia.org/~bryan/flickr/upload) has a license selector when a license 7 "No Known Restrictions" image is uploaded with as choices PD-Old, PD-US and PD-Australia.
