Bosco!

Thanks for the tips. I appreciate it.

I wish I could insert a big banner on the NewAdvent's webpage about the
Archdiocese of Goa -- which I accidentally hit upon a few years ago --
totell all visitors that what they are reading is a century-old stuff that
needs to be updated tremendously! The matter was
published in the (old) Catholic Encyclopedia in the year 1909! Just look at
howlers like "(it is the) chief see of the Portuguese dominions in the East;
comprising of,  as suffragans, the sees of Cochin, Mylapore, and Damão (or
Damaun) in India, Macao in China, and Mozambique in East Africa."  Here's
another one: "The present prelate, Mathaeus d'Oliveira Xavier, transferred
from Cochin, took possession of his see 1 July, 1909".

Why NewAdvent did not go for later editions I do not know. The latest
edition of  The New Catholic Encyclopedia is, if I am not mistaken, of the
year 2003, and it contains a well updated note on the Archdiocese of Goa.

Loiola.
