This is by "Flickr Foundation" (flickr.org). It's a separate entity from "Flickr" (flickr.com).
I could not find out the relationship between the two, but I did see that flickr.org's treasurer is flickr.com's CFO; and flickr.com's "President & COO" is "board observer" at flickr.org.
My first reaction was "they are going to be sued to death because of trademarks", but I am guessing having flickr.com's COO on board of directors makes it less likely.
