Had anyone heard anything about yet another revision of the prayerbook aiming for 2012? Some of what I am reading is furthur confirming that the Episcopal church is badly derailed. Of course we already knew that, but it looks as if there are some who consider the 1979 version too exclusionary....
"...certain groups feel excluded by the 1979 Prayer Book, and those feelings will change only when new printed materials end up in worshipers' hands."

I think we all know what "groups" he's referring to. Here is that link if anybody is interested. This is the first I'd heard of this.

Prayer Book revision: 8,000 pages by 2012?
