annual report.
It isn't at the moment, but I don't think we need to require people to
take photos, especially as some may not be comfortable with the
obligation, or to offer it as a reason for a sponsorship request.
My experience is that there is generally plenty of people taking
photos, but some of whom are not aware of the importance of using a
suitable licence or tagging photos appropriately. I think that it is
best practice for hackfest organisers to ask the hackfest attendees to
blog and upload photos at the start of each hackfest. For example, you
can find a whole bunch of GNOME.Asia 2014 photos at
https://www.flickr.com/groups/gnomeasia2014/pool/ which are CC
licensed.
Placing a well placed sign might help encourage folks to think about
it. Maybe a post GUADEC blog post and on social media might also be
appropriate.

Perhaps we could mirror one to the other? We'll still need a
private
repo for images that we may not want to share with the rest of the
world either because the author may have given their permission
only
for use by the GNOME Project or some other restriction.
