Just out of curiosity, what would the Anglican church have to do to rejoin the Roman Catholic church?

Return to Roman jurisdiction. Re-affirm the Catholic faith and denounce the articles that differentiated the Anglicans from the Catholics.

And since they've generally cocked-up the ordination process, all of the priests woudl need to be at least conditionally ordained. This would exclude women, of course.

Got it, thanks! I personally think that if you're in someone else's home, you follow their rules, whether or not you agree with them. When in Rome...

Excellent answer. Some of the Anglican (High Episcopal) have already denounced the preistess endorsements and are in dialogue with Rome about further differences. I think we will see them be the first to rejoin the Roman Catholic Church.
