I think most of us are in accord on general principles of making our archives available,
at least to museums and suchlike...

Regarding sharing amateur material more widely on a non profit basis,
my personal view is some folks are too hindered by their extensive knowledge of legalese..

I do take on board Howard's fair minded reservations..

A beacon for me is Jim, who I respect in these matters,
but not folks such as GUEST,Observer...
