Deacon Stephen, I suggest this is a simplistic complaint based on a a fundamental disregard of the purpose of the Commission. 

Practical familiarity with living the recently reestablished male diaconate in the RCC is not relevant experience for this commission. 

Historical scholarship on the female diaconate as it once existed is required. If there are deacons who have expertise equivalent to that of the group that has been assembled, then yes, an omission has occurred. But I am not aware of any deacon publishing on the primary sources involved...am I mistaken in this?
