Joe M. kindly send feedback for how #BDSP can get better. The whole point is to make people like you happy.

The best way to learn about the project itself and how it’s proceeding is through its blog which is updated daily: I’m sorry Mme Umm iDriss for google’s less-than-ideal commenting system.

Thank you all again.

I hope the DS people will be inspired.
Also thank you, QN! Thanks to you, I see many things that I wouldn’t have seen otherwise.

I stopped buying it when it stopped being an insert in the IHT but remained the same price. And then I stopped reading it online because it’s such a terrible website, but this new layout means that I’ll start reading it again.

Today I am reading Now Lebanon and naharnet and once and a while the dailystar. I liked very much this beta version. But I think that the worst problem is that the website is edited once a day, so sometimes it delivers old news…
