Hi Toby, hi list!
IANAL, but I think that we may be on a much safer legal footing if we include such a disclaimer that our info shouldn't be trusted for air traffic control and things of that nature. There must be a reason that everybody else has one, right?
That's the reason why the [[meme]] concept works ... :-)
Many German Websites have a disclaimer, that they are not responsible for the content of sites that are linked from their site. It's quite wordy, a certain court decision is mentioned, etc. ... They are absolutely useless. Even worse, they could be held against the site owner as a sign that he knew a linked site contained illegal content.
But everybody thinks: The others have a disclaimer, so I need one, too.
If US-laws enforce us to use a disclaimer, okay. But, hmm, anybody know what's "vorauseilender Gehorsam" is in English? I mean: We shouldn't, if we don't have to. :-)
Does Jimbo have any lawyers to advise us on the wording?
I guess the first employed person of the foundation will (or has to) be a lawyer (with special experience in copyrights and responsibilities of site owners/providers). :-(
