Illustration

For obvious reasons these guys would not have taken very many group photos, but I did find one online from September 10, 1944 (after the Liberation of Paris): [1]. I don't know about the copyright issues; are photos more than 50 years old automatically in the public domain? Alternatively, could use the pic of Jean Moulin, it's a nice sketch. Unfortunately the pic of fr:Georges Bidault seems to have been deleted. --Mathew5000 00:24, 20 June 2006 (UTC)[reply]

The CNRmembres.jpg picture (link above) seems Ok to me, but I'm not that hot on copyright issues with photographs- I usually just play with text!

If the author died in 1956 (or before), the photo would probably be in the public domain, but it may be wise to ask someone else!

What did the CNR actually do?

The aspect I'm still confused about is this. At the start of the article, it is suggested that the purpose of the CNR was to improve the coordination of guerilla activities against the Nazi occupiers. Then the article goes into great detail about who attended the first meeting, but says nothing at all about whether the group was successful in its original purpose: organizing the assorted resistance movements to fight the Nazis more effectively. Instead, the article talks about the "programme du Conseil National de la Résistance", which essentially was their blueprint for how France could be governed after the Nazis were thrown out. So did the CNR drastically change its focus after it was formed? That's the impression the article gives, but it doesn't state it explicitly, which I think is awkward. On the other hand, if the CNR really did play a role in organizing strikes against the Occupation or the Vichy regime, then some of its specific achievements in that regard should be mentioned. --Mathew5000 20:35, 23 June 2006 (UTC)[reply]
