3. California Catholic Daily, April 13: Nothing new here. The California Catholic Daily touches on George Cardinal Pell and Tarcisio Cardinal Bertone comments of the impending motu proprio. What is new is that some of the more unorthodox bishops in California such as Bishop Todd Brown has brought back the Tridentine rite Mass in his diocese in Orange county.

4. Musings of a Pertinacious Papist, April 14: Dr. Philip Bosser picks up on the motu proprio rumor postings from two weeks ago, but quietly agrees with RORATE CÆLI that regardless of the date and time, the release of the motu proprio will occur.

And speaking of RORATE CÆLI, no roundup of motu proprio speculation would end without the obligatory RORATE CÆLI rumor posting, but they are probably false (read the very last posting of mine below):

5. RORATE CÆLI, April 14: Straight from the horses mouth, "The Holy Father presided over an unannounced meeting with the heads of dicasteries of the Roman Curia this morning."

6-9. OFF THE RECORD, Bettnet.com, New Liturgical Movement, and LA Catholic, have commented on the very same posting that RORATE CÆLI did.

Not wanting to burst any one's bubble, but the alleged motu proprio rumor in leads number five (5) through nine (9) are false alarms. So says G. Thomas Fitzpatrick over at Recta Ratio as he quotes a commenter from New Liturgical Movements thread on the motu proprio as follows:

So you could possibly disregard that 'impromptu' meeting between the Holy Father and the head of the dicasteries about the motu proprio as FALSE. IF what that commenter is saying is true, no offense towards New Catholic, Phil Lawler, Dom, Shawn Tribe, and Quintero for pointing the fore mentioned.

UPDATED: OK, I'm done making anymore commentary about the impromptu meeting after reading on the Catholic News Agency this link.
