One of the projects we’re working on needs to be able to publish images to Flickr. Rather than re-invent the wheel a quick search on RubyForge and GitHub turned up a number existing Flickr libraries for Ruby. After considering future requirements, we decided to go with flickr_fu.

A fork, a clone and a few tweaks later and we’ve got uploads working. The changes are currently in our fork but I’ll also be submitting them upstream after a little more testing.
