Digital BW, The Print

Such a cross reference would be helpfull indeed. Something for the 
group database?

To give some input (I use Permajet Museum classic for BO-printing):

According to 
http://www.photography.about.com/cs/colortheor1/a/aa041403_4.htm

Hahnemuhle "German Etching" is the same as:
- MediaStreet 'Royal Plush'
- Lyson 'Standard Fine Art'
- Lumijet 'Classic Velour' 
- Permajet 'Museum Classic'
- Cone 'Orwell'
- 'Frankfurt Art' 
- and various other names.
