Do Panasonic and Olympus Know About Each Other? @ Sansmirror

Well, maybe they have a hint or two about each others existence. FTA:
""One thing that struck me once again while unboxing some new m4/3 lenses is that Panasonic sure seems to not mention the word "Olympus" in their m4/3 materials. Other than acknowledgement of Olympus' trademark of the Four Third and Micro Four Third names

on the legalese page, there's no mention of Olympus m4/3 cameras in the Panasonic manuals. Even the reference to "compatible cameras" that takes you to Panasonic's support site drops you into an "Olympus-free" zone. Okay, I did manage to find one link buried in the updating instructions that took you to Olympus' firmware update site to deal with firmware updates for Panasonic lenses, but that was about all I could find."
