In early January, the Congregation for Divine Worship will add to the 1962 Liturgical Calendar seven or eight saints who were canonised after 1962.
According to MessaInLatino.it (December 5) the use of the saints will be optional. No names are known yet. Benedict XVI writes in his 2007 Summorum Pontificum that new saints can be added to the Old Calendar.

A reader on MessaInLatino.it calls this a "wonderful news" because it allows to celebrate "in the extraordinary form" saints "of which we are particularly fond." Among them, the reader lists John Paul II.
