I think thats exactly it - people lost interest - there was loads of hype
and then a site that was 99% of time inaccessible.
I wonder if there are some interesting challenges to the intellectual
copyright on the stuff - surely it should be freely accessible in the public
domain?

I have some original press photos from WW2 which clearly state the press
copyright on the reverse and have seen a couple of them puiblished as "IWM
copyright" - so lots of curious issues here.
