Good article (though it does abbreviate the sources of the schism beyond recognition!).

One thing I found interesting:

To work this out, they are studying Christianity's early history to see how the Latin-speaking West and Greek-speaking East worked together for 1,000 years before the Great Schism.

Before the schism, the doctrine of papal infallibility hadn't been articulated. It's hard to imagine how the Orthodox could get past that without its being watered down beyond recognition.
