Not involved, but I've been following it too. Everytime I think about
getting involved (and figuring out what to do) I get side-tracked.
It's not real easy to find things on the Rangefinderforum.

It would be fun to do, but sending a cheap rangefinder around (there
are scads of Zorkis and other reasonably priced rangefinders) is easy
for them; they are generic. But sending a Leica around could get
problematic (if we were to do it on this list).

It _would_ be fun though. Set up an album in the gallery ...
