For those interested, and especially for the Dutch and Belgian (Flemish)
communities: here is an article in Dutch:
http://www.rtlnieuws.nl/nieuws/binnenland/een-stukje-belgie-straks-van-nederland-en-dat-zonder-bloedvergieten
Note that the swap is located on the (very small) boundary between the
Netherlands and Wallonia, not Flandres, but the article posted by Steve
is in French already.
It appears that the swap hasn't occurred yet, but is slated for later
this year. The article doesn't mention a date however.
I've contacted "our" (Dutch) guy already, who is responsible for
maintaining administrative boundaries in the Netherlands.
Regards,
Frank
