Suggestions that Easter should be celebrated on the same day across rites seems, in my humble opinion, to show a distinct lack of respect for tradition. As to updating outmoded liturgical forms - such notions are really so passé - a transcendant liturgy stands outside of time and must be perennial not updated at a whim.
It seems the East has been busy looking at the lassitude of the West - We Latins however are not unaware of the corruptions which have already seriously erroded the traditions of the East - particularly the Maronites.

faith...
