A long post on the process for appointing the next Archbishop of Canterbury

The news that the Most Rev'd and Rt Hon Rowan Douglas Williams, PC, Lord Archbishop of Canterbury would be stepping down from that office to take up the post of Master of Magdalen College, Cambridge was a surprise only in the timing.

( A very long post put behind a cut for the uninterested )

I will post later on my opinion on Archbishop Rowan's legacy to the Church of England and the Anglican Communion.
