73354 - y2k disclaimer on several mozilla download pages

Status: RESOLVED FIXED

(mozilla.org :: Miscellaneous, task)

Description

[Jesse Ruderman]

From http://www.mozilla.org/releases/ and http://www.mozilla.org/binaries.html:

"We do not guarantee that any source code or executable code available from the 
mozilla.org domain is Year 2000 compliant."

Is that statement still necessary?

Also on ftp://ftp.mozilla.org/welcome.msg.

I am not a lawyer. Do not take anything I say as legal advice.

Has a decision been reached about this?

Comment 3

[Brian Candler]

Perhaps it can now be changed to "Year 2038 or Year 2100 compliant" :-)

cc'ing Brant who removed y2k advisory from http://www.mozilla.org/binaries.html

I convinced Asa to remove the y2k disclaimer on http://www.mozilla.org/releases/
in person a few months ago.  It's still on
http://www.mozilla.org/releases/stable.html.
