[ACTION NEEDED] Your Signature for Inkscape FSA
If your name is among the following, your attention is required as signatory for Inkscape's new Fiscal Sponsorship Agreement (FSA):
Tavmjong Bah, Bryce Harrington, Ted Gould, Jon Cruz, Josh Andler, Timothy Cole, Nathan Hurst, Aaron Spike.
Steps:
0. Print it. [Hint: Set your printer to print double-sided to save postage]
1. Write your initials on each page with a pen where it says "Initials:"
2. On the signature page, with a pen, sign your full name on the signature on the line with your name below. Also fill in the date, using the date that you signed it.
3. Scan and/or photograph all pages of the signed contract.
4. Email that scan/photograph to us as an attachment. Include in the body of the email "I agree to this attached contract". If you happen to use GPG, please also GPG-sign the message.
5. Put the printed copy with the signatures in an envelope and send it to:
Software Freedom Conservancy, Inc. 137 Montague Street STE 380 Brooklyn, NY 11201-3548 USA
6. When we receive the printed copy, we'll sign it, scan it, and send you both electronic and paper copies.
Background:
We need both the original signatories as well as the current Inkscape board members, since the original FSA did not make adequate provision for passing authority forward to subsequent boards.
This new FSA has been under work/review/debate for many months with the goal of addressing this and other problems. By unanimous (but unofficial) vote, the Inkscape board approves this version of the document and recommends it be signed and adopted.

I've got an informal thumbs-up from everyone, so let's proceed with an execution copy and signatures.
Great! I've attached an execution-ready copy. One minor change: I deleted Johan's name from the defined list of signatories (his name had already been removed from the signature block): he wasn't one of the original signatories and he's not a current/future member of the Inkscape Committee, so his signature isn't strictly necessary.
Once again, I've added Bradley's trusty step-by-step tutorial on how to sign the agreement below.
Thanks! Best, -Tony

If you all are ok with the agreement, here's my step-by-step tutorial on how to get the agreement signed (I know hackers hate paperwork, so I try to make it as straightforward as possible):

Hi all, I see that Josh, Aaron and myself have completed the signoff. Thanks Josh and Aaron!
Everyone else, please set aside some time this week to get this completed. It would be great if we could have this task achieved by the end of the month.
