Hi everybody, 

thanks for moving imc beirut content so quickly. However, now the the site 
does not register changes anymore since 4 days. check the date: it's still 
on 15.12. Openposting works as I can see from new articles arriving in the 
admin but not on the site. 

Some curiousity I also found: If you go to https://beirut.indymedia.org you 
get to the IMC UK. 

Yours,
blue
