A Flickr API Method for Getting Note Coordinates Please
I recently did a rough interface design for an image grouping tool that a client has requested. Having uploaded the file to Flickr, I added some notes explaining how it would work.
What I want now is a way of getting high-quality version of the file (including notes) which I can print or send to the client.
Theoretically I could write a little web application which fetches the image file along with it's notes and their locations from Flickr, and combines this stuff into a PDF for me to print.
Unfortunately this can't be done because the Flickr API only lest you add, edit and delete notes - not get information about existing notes.
So, Flickr people, please add a method for retrieving notes for a particular image.

Actually, the notes can be fetched via the flickr.photos.getInfo method, along with other useful information about the photo. Now, how cool is that?
I stand corrected, thanks for the tip.
