watching Kim and Mikey and cedars videos is like when you were a witness. You have to sit through hours and hours of talks to get one nugget of scriptural knowledge you find useful.
Thank you, nowwhat? !!!

Thanks SL and FC for the info. So it is a printed copy. Perhaps they "tackled" producing the French version before the German and Spanish ones. If they're making a higher quality binding for the bros in the islands and African nations, then they must have some funding for such "robust" copies.
The new term for "congregation" en français is interesting. I wonder what's up with that. A Splane quirk? Some legal manoeuvre?
Morph, you'll just have to quit predicting the org's imminent demise! Or wait a minute, was that Morph? ...

Ireland
by berrygerry inhttps://www.businesspost.ie/news/concerns-grow-jehovahs-witnesses-irish-child-sex-abuse-files-421695.
concerns grow over jehovah’s witnesses irish child sex abuse files.
the sunday business post (ireland), sunday, july 22, 2018 - page 11. the jehovah’s witnesses have been urged to give the authorities potentially hundreds of documents related to child sex abuse in ireland over fears the organisation could be forced to delete them after a recent european court of justice ruling on the religion’s data-handling practices.. this month, the european court of justice ruled that the jehovah’s witnesses church was not exempt on any religious grounds from certain elements of the newly introduced gdpr data protection laws.. the jehovah's witnesses had argued that its practice of door-to-door preaching was covered by an exemption to the data protection law, but the court upheld an earlier decision by the finnish supreme court.. it now leaves the religion's irish and british headquarters - known at the watch tower - with a conundrum in relation to the potentially thousands of documents related to child abuse allegations in both countries, according to jason wynne, a former jehovah's witness who is now a campainger for awareness about instances of abuse within the religion.. wynne told the sunday business post that while the new law allows current and former jehovah's witnesses to request the deletion of files containing sensitive personal information, it could also "have a knock-on effect to their child abuse policies.".

This is an interesting development, using the recent GDPR law and court decision to access the org's hidden child abuse records. This bears watching to see how it will play out.

SBF, Who's talking about Dutch? The topic is the French rev. NWT being released, evidently in electronic format. So what's to prevent an electronic only format being announced in Spanish? What would that have to do with money any more than the French rev. NWT being released?

SBF, Well, if they could "afford" to produce an electronic version in French, then why not an electronic version in Spanish?

Yeah, the lack of the Spanish rev NWT is really strange. What's up with that? Aren't there plenty of Spanish translators? Maybe Morhp is "right"!
