that info was available to those of us not well connected to Leica: not

desire for the next best from Leica may not last that long :-)"

Hi Bob, I just read the public statement by Stefan Daniel at the time on
the L Camera Forum. Their archives are searchable. This was nearly 2 1/2
years ago. As far as I know the numbers actually involved were small and I
have seen nothing new on anyone affected over the last 2 years or so.
A couple of the very senior people there are members who post very
occasionally in response to any development like that. Seems like a good
idea when any issue becomes magnified by the magic of the internet ;-) to
respond with the facts or their solution. They have a social media person
too and they do follow that forum and the RF one I think, where those
conversations on Leica sometimes develop.

I remember that Howard Cummings was one of our folks who had a screen
problem. Perhaps there were others.

Cheers
Geoff
