The Joint Standing Committee of the Anglican Consultative Council and the Primates of the Anglican Communion have now submitted their Report on The Episcopal Church House of Bishops of Meeting in New Orleans. The Archbishop of Canterbury has sent the Report to all the Primates and to all members of the Anglican Consultative Council and asked them to consult in their Provinces on the Report, and respond to him by the end of October.
A PDF of the Report can be found here.

I'm quite upset (but shouldn't be surprised) by the "double-speak" in the report. I love how the authors are more than ready to "move towards closure." Is this compromise working for anyone but the bishops and the ACC Standing Committee?
