<p class="MsoNormal">A Final Specification provides intellectual property protections to implementers of the specification and is not subject to further revision. An Implementer’s Draft is a stable version of a specification also providing intellectual property
protections, but that is subject to further revision.<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><o:p> </o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal">This note starts the 60 day public review period for the specification drafts in accordance with the OpenID Foundation IPR policies and procedures. This review period will end on Tuesday, February 18, 2014. Unless issues are identified
during the review that the working group believes must be addressed by revising the drafts, this review period will be followed by a seven day voting period during which OpenID Foundation members will vote on whether to approve these drafts as Final Specifications
and Implementer’s Drafts. For the convenience of members, voting may begin up to two weeks before Tuesday, February 18<sup>th</sup>, with the voting period still ending on Tuesday, February 25, 2014.<o:p></o:p></p>
