It's highly unlikely at this stage that he will ever be in communion with Rome, absent some miracle of grace, still less a participant in a conclave.

He actually is in communion with Rome that's just more spin. No one ever thought John XXIII would be Pope either



Just curious, how can you say that he is in communion with Rome, when you know that he is excommunicated?

Because he's not excommunicated. JPII could say that the sky is orange but that doesn't make it orange. "Implied schism" is one of the howlers of the nonsense that is the "Ecclesia Dei" document.
