Is Bishop Williamson stepping down?

Is Bishop Richard Williamson stepping down as director of the Seminary of the Priestly Fraternity of Saint Pius X (FSSPX / SSPX) in La Reja, Argentina, as we first mentioned yesterday?

Sources close to the Bishop can neither confirm nor deny the persistent rumors that he is about to step down, which increased this Sunday (for instance, as reported in the most respected Argentinian daily, La Nación). It is possible that the Superior General of the SSPX, Bishop Bernard Fellay, will make an announcement on the matter.
