You wrote a memo titled "An Open Proposal
Fixing the Font Format" and posted it to his list around a month ago. The
first line and main thesis is:

"Move OpenType to W3C as a new Working Group."

You did not write,

"Move OpenFontFormat to W3C as a new Working Group."

So, you use the word entitled, and I put it to you kindly that you seem
entitled to the Microsoft OpenType ® spec.
