this is the end of nothing because:

- Rodinal is a well-know formulation and it's easy to make by anyone  
else (other manufacturers, yourself...)
- As their local press releases said, the insolvence filing is only  
over agfaphoto GMBH, and not the whole Agfaphoto holding
- If the disaster happens, the patents and processes -almost  
certainly- will be sold to pay the debt, and then manufactured under  
the same or other name.
- From here up to the end of year a gazillion of things could happen,  
so there is no need to bury the dead while it's yet alive.
