Hello everyone,

I thought this story from the BBC might be of interest. It's about how the National Archives have just released a batch of files from 1944 under the 70 year rule.

Does anyone have a good relationship with the National Archives? Wikimedia UK can help if anyone is interested in developing a project.

Thanks and regards,

Stevie
