I think the draft clearly expresses the semantics, as Roy says. The draft cannot (and does not) address legal or regulatory concerns. In any case, it's hard to see what such concerns there may be around an explicit statement that compliance is explicitly NOT claimed by the site, which is what ! means.
Can you give me a pointer to the concern you believe is still outstanding (or re-send it)? Thanks
