Maybe joseki  

DJ: Where is W8 here??!? Klaus: Mistake removed

[Diagram]
May be joseki too ...  

Now White has to answer Black a at b, so Black keeps sente.

Try this?  

unkx80: I am not too sure. How is this?

Try this?  

Dieter: One has to think about using the marked stones effectively. Unfortunately for Black, White can escape in this position. So ...
