More on the Arinze Letter

Gerald at The Cafeteria is Closed has posted a couple of additional items regarding the letter from Cardinal Arinze addressed to Bishop Skylstad pertaining to the USCCB's upcoming vote on a new English-language translation of the Mass.

First, Gerald notes that Bishop Donald Trautman (a.k.a. "Trautperson") has responded to the Cardinal's letter:

Bishop Skylstad has forwarded to all Latin Rite Bishops a copy of Cardinal Arinze's letter concerning translation of the Order of Mass, which is presently under consideration by the members of the USCCB and scheduled for vote by the U.S. Bishops at their June meeting. I see this letter as a clarification and further restatement of criteria for translation previously authored by the Congregation in its document Liturgiam authenticam. This recent correspondence offers additional input for the deliberation of the Bishops.

Second, Gerald has framed Cardinal Arinze's letter for posterity:
