Sorry cudn't reply before, I was out of town on Thanksgiving Holidays.
Regarding flickrfs, I have been experiencing a huge consumption of RAM,
if the number of photos are large, say around 2000 photos. I'm thinking
of solving that problem by storing the information of photos in a
database, preferably Berkeley DB. I'd like to release a new version, so
that its users don't experience this issue. Considering that you're
integrating it with debian package, I'd assume that there will be more
usage of flickrfs, as its installation will become very easy. I'd like
the new version of flickrfs be integrated. Would it be fine to hold on
to the release for another week, while I integrate the db approach; or
release as it is, and make another release later. I'd like your opinion
on this.
I can wait for one more week. Please go ahead with the new release. But please modify the flickrapi.py license to MIT. It will help me in releasing the package in Debian as it is DFSG compatible.
Regards
Varun
