MACO film changes (was: Maco IR film base compared to Kodak HIE and Antihalation layers)

[Marco Pauck <pauck@xxxxxx>]

Just got some new info from MACO:

Due to the feedback for the prototype, several changes will be
made for the production films:

- Amount of fogging was too high
  -> Sensitivity will be reduced to ISO 100
- Packaging for 35mm was bad ->
  -> Films will be packaged separately
- Compatibility with HIE was good
  -> Processing is now "fully compatible to HIE"(?)
- Pricing was very good
  -> Prices will be retained until Photokina regardless of the
     extreme UD$/DM ratio

Distribution in Germany and USA will start in April.
