Web Commerce API vote results

The Web Commerce API voting polls closed yesterday with 92% of the vote
in favor of adopting the document as a work item. Detailed results of
the poll are attached to this email.

I failed to include the name field on the poll for the first three
people that voted. I know that one of them was Pindar. I don't know who
the other two were (Canada and France). If you voted and don't see your
name in the results please identify your vote via the mailing list.

I checked with the person that voted in favor of not adopting the work
and their vote was split. They were in favor of standardizing the
payment request and payment response format, but are against making the
way that request was initiated browser-only. That is, making it
browser-only would be too limiting, which is very good input and is not
the purpose of the specification. So, we need to clarify the
specification so that others don't walk away with that same false
impression.

The Web Commerce API is now a work item for this group. We'll update the
website to reflect this group decision.
