Media Guardian: Guardian resizes ahead of schedule
The Guardian is to relaunch in its new, smaller format in the autumn, nearly a year ahead of schedule.
Guardian Newspapers confirmed the move today, adding that the Observer would switch to the new “Berliner” format early next year.
…
The “Berliner” format is already used by a number of European newspapers, including Le Monde, and is slightly larger than a tabloid but smaller than a broadsheet.

So hang on…
When is it actually happening?
The Guardian ist ein Berliner. Shades of President Kennedy.
Ironic fact of the day: No Berlin newspaper actually uses the format.
