+Flickcurl: C library for the Flickr API
+
+Dave Beckett
+
+Flickcurl is a C library for the Flickr API, handling creating the
+requests, signing, token management, calling the API, marshalling
+request parameters and decoding responses. It uses libcurl to call
+the REST web service and libxml2 to manipulate the XML responses.
+Flickcurl supports 100% of the 2009-04-04 version of the API (see
+Flickcurl API coverage) including the functions for photo/video
+uploading, browsing, searching, adding and editing comments, groups,
+notes, photosets, categories, activity, blogs, favorites, places,
+tags, machine tags, institutions, pandas and photo/video metadata. It
+also includes a program flickrdf to turn photo metadata, tags, machine
+tags and places into an RDF triples description.
