@Fae: Is this a request about implementing such a throttle generically somewhere in the Commons uploading infrastructure, or about implementing this in the flickr2commons tool specifically?

The latter. I was not sure where to add it, thanks for shuffling it about. :-)

I am unsure how tricky this is, but it may be a good idea for user upload service type tools with the capability for running multiple threads to be limited to one-thread-per-user-account unless it is an approved bot or the user is white-listed (by some community agreed process).

Hacked in a limiter, concurrent upload limit now 2.

@Magnus: Hi! This task has been assigned to you a while ago. Could you maybe share an update? Is there more work needed? Do you still plan to work on this task?
If this task has been resolved in the meantime: Please update the task status (via Add Action... → Change Status in the dropdown menu).
If this task is not resolved and only if you do not plan to work on this task anymore: Please consider removing yourself as assignee (via Add Action... → Assign / Claim in the dropdown menu): That would allow others to work on this (in theory), as others won't think that someone is already working on this. Thanks!
