Rome's New Procedure for Attempted Ordination of Women

Vatican to clarify canonical procedure for attempted ordination of women. Catholic News Agency reports:
"Sins such as the attempted ordination of women to the priesthood and the "crimes against the faith" of heresy, schism and apostasy, that have until now been investigated by the CDF {Congregation for the Doctrine of the Faith} only on an extraordinary basis will fall under their official jurisdiction, thus clearing up any confusion as to where cases must be reported. In other words, it formalizes procedures that may have been followed in practice, but were never made official."
Basically this means that the CDF has great jurisdiction over these matters. Perhaps the CDF foresees a growing problem and wishes to take precautionary measures - a good idea.
