[Leica] warning of possible LUG outage

[Peter Dzwig]

I am beginning to wonder whether this might not be such a bad idea 
afterall. The servers will have to be examined for breaches and hostile 
s/w in any case. So a few days "planned respite" would not be *such* a 
bad idea. Just let us know,

Good Luck,

Peter
