SVG Glyphs in OpenType specification: action required!

Hello folks,

Given the lack of further discussion or objections since Sairus
submitted the final revised SVG Glyphs in OpenType proposal, I have
converted it into HTML5 and published it as a final report.

http://www.w3.org/2013/10/SVG_in_OpenType/

You can read about that here
http://www.w3.org/community/svgopentype/2013/10/09/call-for-final-specification-commitments-for-svg-glyphs-in-opentype-specification/

but the bottom line is that, since this is a final report, it requires
a sign off step from each of you. This is to give a royalty free
patent cover on the specification.

Note: On joining the community group you already agreed to the
Community License
http://www.w3.org/community/about/agreements/cla-deed/
which does much the same thing. But for the final report, you need to
explicitly agree (or not agree) to the Final Specification Agreement

summary:

full text

What you are agreeing to is firstly copyright, that the spec can use
any contributions that you made during discussions; and secondly a
royalty free patent license for any *essential* patents that you may
be holding.

The form you need for doing that is here:
http://www.w3.org/community/svgopentype/spec/63/makecommitment
and its a basic yes or no question.
