That's what I read in the Leica reply aswell. I privately e-mailed Hans to ask his course of actions. He replied he had removed my LUG logo and is now only using a red & white Leica dot (leicadot.gif) that I also created from the by now infamous LUG logo. There's one thing I don't quite get, the Leica reply speaks of a logo that 'consists unseperably of both the red "button" and the dark grey written charakter'. Dark grey? Doesn't he mean white or is he referring to the Leica dot as it appears on the M6? Strange. There's a thing in Leica reply that's not clear to me, 'wishing to relate to us'. Of course we LUGGERS want to relate to them but do they actually want us to so? I also e-mailed Erwin to ask about the Leica lettering he uses on his site, haven't had a reply yet. ========= Bert Keuken
