Kodak bankruptcy
I used to work in Kodak R&D. (too much corporate culture and middle
management) If I was a stakeholder in Kodak's reorganization, I would like to see them map out the workflows of all possible imaging chains, and make business cases on hard facts as opposed to just brand value, whether they be AgX, digital, or hybrid. Where imaging chains intertsect or get jumbled I'd like to see them provide open standard solutions and play nice with other provider's. This is where brand value can lead the way. On the TV news I heard they were going to drop digital capture and focus on packaging, printers and software. Still hanging on to AgX capture? Not playing a role in digital cameras, scanners and sensors doesn't seem like someone who wants to take pictures further. -- Dale |

I'd like to see them preserve as much manufacturing and design documentation as possible for all the products they'll shed, and license it at no cost to anyone who is willing to make the stuff. Kodak doubtless does not want to be in the low-volume, high-price art materials market, but there's no reason the analog products should die and become impossible to ever bring back (which is what will happen without Kodak's detailed process documentation for making them) just because Kodak can't economically make them any more. Kodak could probably even derive significant tax benefits from giving all the associated intellectual property to a charity created for the purpose. Or use one they already have handy, like, say, Eastman House. But I cannot imagine how one would ever get this idea in front of the appropriate people associated with the bankruptcy.
