Expected Quota of usage

Probably ~100 per day as I develop some web-enabled open source apps. If more people start using these apps, it's probably around ~10 per user. The BZFlag community is small.

To start, requests would only be going to images.bzflag.org, to load textures. images.bzflag.org employs content moderation and most textures are under CC or other open licenses. This is a workaround until images.bzflag.org enables CORS.

BZFlag is an open-source online game developed since the 90s. Textures for community-made maps are served at images.bzflag.org, which currently does not enable CORS.

To start, requests would only be going to images.bzflag.org, to load textures. images.bzflag.org employs content moderation and most textures are under CC or other open licenses. This is a workaround until images.bzflag.org enables CORS.

Later I might want to request some other content, like lists of active servers from web services.

Anything else?

Here's a map you can try with the demo, if you're curious to see it in action :)

Even if images.bzflag.org (the bzflag texture repository) enables CORS, it would be handy to have this service in my back pocket as a workaround for other data that map editors, experimental BZFlag clients, etc might need to access from a WebGL app.
