Subject:Gibali's development of Badawi's 5 levels query

Hello everybody. I have read somewhere that Prof. Alaa Elgibali has  
developped Badawi's 5 levels system of the Egyptian Arabic continuum.  
He added two more levels making distinction between formal/informal  
language, so that they become:
1. informal literary arabic
2. formal well-educated colloquial arabic
3. informal well-educated colloquial arabic
4. formal educated colloquial arabic
5. informal educated colloquial arabic
6. formal uneducated colloquial arabic
7. informal uneducated colloquial arabic.

Does anyone know where can I find this distinction?
Thank you very much indeed.
