I don't personally use AGFA products -- other than occasionally fooling around with Rodinal -- but I have several friends who are dedicated users of AGFA films and/or papers, and they are concerned. What I have heard is that AGFA Photo can't make payroll, and has filed for some sort of protection. So the question I have is "What sort of protection?". Are they seeking respite from their creditors with an eye towards reorganizing and reopening _ala_ Illford and Forte, or have they just thrown in the towel and plan to liquidate? I'm hoping that Edward or another of our European correspondents can shed some light here that I can pass on.
