Hi,

Indeed, this disclaimer needs to go away. I've already taken action to
remove it, but it takes some time. Hopefully I'll soon be able to send
e-mails without it. In the meantime, we can hold off merging patches if
it causes legal issues (reviews still welcome!). I can re-send patches
without the disclaimer once it gets removed from my outgoing e-mails.

Thanks!
