Some Anglicans have been meeting together for decades with some Orthodox.

Ditto some Anglicans and Old Catholics, some Anglicans and Catholics, some Anglicans and Lutherans.

Of those groups, the only concrete results have been intercommunion with the Old Catholics - who are a tiny sect - and some Lutherans.

The Orthodox women deacons are what Latin Rite Catholics call sisters - they are not in orders.

The rank and file don't have a say in whether women are ordained in Orthodoxy. Outside North America and some small support in Western Europe, it is a non-issue.
