You like playing in minefields don't you :P

I'd say most of the material on this site is subject to copyright but whether or not it falls outside whatever standard governs this kind of thing someone else can state I still don't think any organisation in a position of responsibility would like to have any pointers to this kind of collection.

Parts could be safe or considered public domain but who has the time to sort it and then it would have to be moved to a new location and maintained

Of course you could be just suggesting it be used for reference not as a resource as such for information transfer to the Wiki but of course you would have just said that in the first place ;) but even this I would think isn't quite above board either

Yeah about using somethings for the wiki i meant only the various AmigaOS related parts expecially seeiying how rare is such material and how mutch can be usefull for developers and current Wiki mantainer, indeed there are also lot of things out there that are surely useless for the main wiki project (manuals for acceleration board, for language programming and so so on)

Also if there are some legal issue (i don't know) i think if would be better to report .. still i don't know, at the end i just report a link i have found browsing Amiga.org, but if there are problem fell free to erase the entire thread

Original Amiga.org thread
