Boa noite,

<For examples of texts with this orthography check any Portuguese
<newspaper (they've adopted the new orthography within the last year):

They? Be careful. Not quite.

>From the mainstream press, only the IMPRESA group publications (where you have Expresso, an important weekly newspaper), RECORD (a sports newspaper) and LER magazine have adopted it.

Some other newspapers and publications may adopt it in the future, but today that is not true. 

Any online AOLP90 text that may come up in I [ionline.pt] or Diário de Notícias [www.dn.pt] or any other newspaper comes from Lusa (the PT news agency) (www.lusa.pt).

For instance, Público (www.publico.pt) has an editorial position against AOLP90 and they "translate" to the 1945 rule the press dispatches from Lusa.



<This variant subtag is intended to apply to text that uses the
<Portuguese orthography introduced in an international agreement signed
<in 1945 and implemented from 1945 in Portugal and 1971 in Brazil.


João, "from 1945 in Portugal and 1971 in Brazil"?

It may seem that Brazil adopted the 1945 rules in 1971. Which is not the case. 

Best regards, 

Francisco
