Unfortunately, it succeeded in its purpose: to totally deflect the thread from anything intelligent or forward-looking. For myself, I am extremely interested in this because my own Province has apparently not been included, nor have the ACA or UECNA. As we three communions represent the remaining orthodox home-grown Anglican movement in the US, I am tempted to consider the self-labeling opportunistic at best and misleading at worst. It is highly doubtful whether any communion which ordains women can be considered orthodox in any Christian sense. Given that TAC and Global South both do so, with some gusto, we should approach this ‘meeting’ with some reservation.

I don't believe the invites have gone out yet. It will be interesting to see who gets invited.

I do agree that ordination of women is the big sticking issue at this point; certainly from the former Episcopal camp folks like Ilker wouldn't compromise on the issue, the question being whether the final construct will be one that those who left earlier can live with.
