Does anyone know of any project to systematically digitize an place
online large numbers of the WWII-era OSS maps?  Anything comparable to
what UT-Austin PCL library has done with the AMS topo series.  (Also,
the AMS maps could more easily be registered, since they're real
projected maps .... anyone know of a project where that's been done?)

thanks,

   Mark
