Wow, from looking at the Settlement FAQ, you do have to opt out by September 4th. Plus even if you opt out, Google is not obliged to pull your book -- it's purely voluntary on Google's part.

Yeah, I can't get behind this. Authors and publishers need more time to decide, it ought to be an opt-in system, and opt-out should be obligatory rather than voluntary.
