MiL reports today that the long awaited instruction on the implementation of Summorum Pontificum has been sent to the worlds bishops. I`ve not said anything about the instruction so far. I signed the petition protesting against proposed restrictions but I had been told before Christmas by Someone Who Ought to Know that there was nothing to worry about. This proved not to be quite true. Rorate Caeli reported a few days ago that severe restrictions had been included during the document`s passage through the CDF but these had been removed by the Pope at the final stage.
According to MiL the earlier reported ban on ordinations in the EF outside of Ecclesia Dei institutes (unless permission is granted by Rome) unfortunately has been retained. The teaching of the EF in seminaries is recommended but there appears to be nothing on whether SP applies to other Western rites such as the Ambrosian rite. Oh well I`m sure we`ll see the full text soon.
UPDATE.04.04.11 The news today appears to be that it will not now be available until next month.
UPDATE 05.04.11 MiL today is saying that Tornelli has got it wrong but agrees it will bear the publication date of April 30th. Well it is coming soon whoever is right.

Don't hold your breath: but it might be quite negative so you could see it tomorrow!
Tuesday and no news(?). Maybe not so bad. I suppose they will wait now until their Low Week meeting. But, why, if its the finished document, can't it be released now?
You posted: UPDATE 05.04.11 MiL today is asying that Tornelli has got it wrong but agrees it will bear the publication date of April 30th. Well it is coming soon whhoever os right.
I feel that your optimism may be unjustified. When will the next up-date appear?
