It has been represented (perhaps "speculated" is a better word) elsewhere that most feature programming will disappear, but it appears this really isn't the case. Things are sorted along new themes: -- "Economy, Ecology, Technology - The Information Half-Hour" (even half-hours) -- "The Arts, Lifestyle, Entertainment - The Culture Half-Hour" (odd half-hours) -- "Weekend Selection" Prime-time evening hours to North America (0100-0400) continue to be the 55-minute "Newslink Plus", so you'll have to listen on-demand or on shortwave for the other feature programs. Newslink is indeed becoming more of a "rolling news" format, with more frequent updates than currently offered; currently, new versions are produced every 3 hours; the new schedule will set the refresh cycle to once every 2 hours. The new A-07 program schedule is available at the same link above via PDF.
