The Legacy Standard Bible now has an informative Website. Home - Legacy Standard Bible (lsbible.org) There is a lot of useful information there including Blog posts, Video library and the goals and translation approach of the impending LSB.
It looks like they are trying to combine the strengths of both the NASB 77 and 95. It will be a seriously literal translation, but they have also aimed at readability.
I have been reading through their sample of Mark's gospel and can say I enjoyed it. That said there are a few quirks. Most of the verses in the LSB in Mark ch 1, for example, start with 'And'. A literal rendering no doubt but not the best English.
I am seriously considering making this one of my main translations. It will depend if there is a strong dispensational bias or not (the translators come form the Masters Seminary and the Masters University).
