However, there has been a drop off in image viewings over the recent past. I see even Jim Shulman's numbers are down to a third of what they used to be a few years ago. If, like myself, many here have not ventured to digital Leicas because of reliability issues, and the main take up of new Leicas is in non English speaking countries like Russia, China, etc., then there has to be shrinkage in LUG posts, images submitted to the LUG galleries, and views of same. I certainly wouldn't be advocating marketing the yearbook for the reasons outlined by FF, but would have anticipated more buying of the book among the 72.
