The other catch, and this is a big one -- they can be forceably converted to the regular Novus Ordo Roman Catholic mass at any time.

Well, it sure isn't easy finding out exactly what the Provision says. I hoped for an easily accessible document on the web and it's not popping right up.

We American Catholics would probably all be happier if we were forcibly converted to the Anglican Use liturgy. Hard to imagine a parish converting en masse with no assurance of a continuing respect for the liturgical tradition that is important to them.

From what I've heard... no doubt. Though IMHO it is a shame that the "Anglican Use" drafters felt the need to draw from the 1979 BCP -- when I read the Anglican Use it felt so familiar... right up until the bits ripped from the '79 clanked in my ear. Pachelbel, meet Stravinsky.
