It seems to have died from lack of interest. Also Johnny Deadman has done something similiar for his Street Photo group, but, it does not seem to be a huge hub of activity. So, considering that not very many LUG members have websites where they display their work, or even taken advantage of the Leica Users website where they could scan in their photos for free, I wonder....
