Hi Geoff,

What I think is that nobody represent, or is supported by Leica, on  
this case all the work from LUG members or Leica Forum members is  
reduced to a small target of people from the lists.

IMO, Alasatairs book is one of the better things to be diffused, it is  
really a shame that Leica don't consider that most of the  
photographers are with Leica, and that the important is the image.

I think this is an old subject not interesting for Leica Headquarters

Cheers
Lluis
