Default ASW-12 Proto Question

I also know from very, very reliable sources the story of how the
AS-12 came to be known as the AS-W12, and all subsequent Schleicher
designs have had a letter designation for the designer. Would you like
to hear the story?

I would, and I hope includes mention that some earlier gliders, like
Ka-6 and Ka-7, also had the "designer designator" in them.
