Flickr response

Some time ago (when the whole Flickr thing broke out) I requested a commercial API key thinking to mak an add-on for Star*Explorer.
A few minutes ago (and a few weeks later) I finally got a response:
Thank you for your query. Unfortunately, we cannot support
this type of commercial integration at this time.

Anybody ever got any luck with a commercial key? Or should I pretend I'm "only testing" and request a non-commercial one? :scratch
"May the f/stop be with you!"

    Hey Nik,

    I just got a non-commercial one for SmuggLr.

    Another opinion is for you to provide your users with a place to insert a Flickr API Key and secret key, that way it's up to them. It's also a good insurance policy in case flickr cancel your api key.

    Cheers,
