Yes, the link was posted here a while ago.
I have tried to find out repeatedly if Gilly's long promised publication of Widemann's catalogues finally appeared at some point, but found no evidence that it did.
I've written to Gilly, but never got a response. This is not unusual when the question includes the words 'Voynich MS' ;-)
A very long autograph MS by Wideman is preserved in Hannover. Stefan Guzy and I had it digitised. This is relatively hard to read, and I have barely gone through it. Not sure how far Stefan got, but it is theoretically possible that it mentions something of relevance to the MS he sold to Rudolf, and how he got it (even though this book was written much later).
