Archbishop of Vienna Cardinal Christoph Schoenborn walking along platform next to train, surrounded by media STORYLINE: With Pope John Paul II's spiritual testament still sealed, the cardinals who will elect his successor resumed meetings on Wednesday to make the final arrangements for his entombment as pilgrims poured into Rome to witness the funeral pageantry. The reading of John Paul's last writings, which may happen during Wednesday's meeting of the College of Cardinals, is unlikely to influence the choice of the 117 cardinals who will cast ballots later this month for the next head of the one (b) billion-strong church. But it may reveal the identity of a secret cardinal John Paul said he had named in 2003 and held "in pectore," or "in the heart" - a formula that has been used when the pope wants to appoint a cardinal in a country where the church is oppressed. Vatican officials have given no indication of what else might be among the late pontiff's final papers. In a major change to a centuries-old practice, the Vatican said it planned to ring bells in addition to sending up white smoke to announce that a new pope has been chosen. Black smoke coming from the chimney of the Sistine Chapel signals no decision has been made after a papal ballot, while white smoke means a pope has been elected. In another change from past papal elections, cardinals voting in the conclave will have access to all of Vatican City during the election, as opposed to being sequestered in the Sistine Chapel. Schoenborn is among the possible candidates to become the new pope.
