From Reuters: Lufthansa Cargo needs more freighters by 2015 | Reuters (http://www.reuters.com/article/idUSFAB01586420101130)

The obvious replacement (near equivalent) for a MD-11F is a B777F. Question is, then, who's going to operate those birds. AeroLogic (the obvious choice) or LH Cargo?

If it turns out to be AeroLogic, is there a clause in the contract stipulating that surplus LH Cargo MD-11 crew have to walk the plank and revert to the misery of flying SLF?

Rumor has it that it will either be 5 777-200LRF's or 4 747-8F's. And regardless of the type, to be operated by LH crews.
