text: In an August 10, 2016 NCR article, Phyllis Zagano announced she had been named to the Vatican's commission on women deacons. It has been six months. Has there been even one meeting? What a strategy. Form a commission. Get a lot of favorable press. Keep on saying opening the diaconate to women is a 'possibility.' Never hold a meeting. At least not in this century. Did I miss something?
