Re: Archives of BundesArchiv
Hi, Mike
Just a question - if they as you say released all their photographs onto wikimedia, how dobyou search this site?
I have numerous references noted from my visits to Koblenz, but I cannot find them.
Also - when I search this site with keywords Bf 109 or Me 109 and Bundesarchiv I end up with about 40 results. I have seen hundreds of Bf 109 images in Koblenz. So yes, they may have uploaded a few images to the site, but it seems to be very far from the entire collection.
As to the copyright discussion and BA. It pops up now and then with especially US and UK based voices pointing at this Enemy Property Act, but it does not seem to have any effect whatsoever - the simple fact is that the original material is at the BA, and they call the shots with regards to access and usage.
Regards,
Andreas B
