Agfa is being recreated sort of. Go to www.apug.org there is a long
thread
on the issue. Basically a group of Agfa people have been hired and are using
a small scale setup to produce Agfa paper and eventually Agfa film. Right now
the paper is out being tested by end users. I haven't received mine yet but
others have.
