This is dry stuff, but I was plowing through a copyright issue at work and
noticed two citations which led me to

(a) the story of who owned the Zeiss name (and I presume the Voigtlander
too)  after World War II

http://www.dantestella.com/technical/zeissname.html

(b) the story of who owned the Leitz name after the war

http://www.dantestella.com/technical/leicaname.html

WARNING: these are court opinions, and the most interesting parts are the
factual descriptions.  Some of the legal stuff will put you to sleep.
