About the “Noctilux 90mm”; this is a very rare lens and the only time I’ve seen one was at the Westlicht photography museum museum in Vienna, Austria. As I recall it is called the Alcon 90, and it was specially made for the Royal Canadian Mounted forces with a very small number of lenses ever built (20 or less).
About the future location of the company, during Photokina there was a display inside Leicas booth detailing the move back to Wetzlar in 2010:
