I  happened to come across a strange thing  here:
http://www.ucpress.edu/books/pages/9275/9275.intro.html

Footnote  70 to a review of the recent "Essays on Music":

"On the specifics of  the Horkheimer-Adorno collaboration, see James 
Schmidt, "Language,  Mythology, and Enlightenment: Historical Notes on 
Horkheimer and Adorno's  Dialectic of Enlightenment," Social Research 65 
no. 4 (1998), pp. 807-38,  including a comparison between the 
mimeographed first version and final  published text,
* as well as background concerning a planned but never  realized 
companion volume that would have served as a "positive theory of  
dialectics" explaining how, in Horkheimer's words, the "{ths}'rescue of  
the enlightenment' might be accomplished" (p. 811)*"

(Emphasis mine  of course.)
(This is new to me. The article sounds itself very interesting  anyway 
but I have no library access to this edition of the journal, so  I'll 
have to order it.)
