The gift of a patch should be one the recipient isn't afraid to try out and deploy; our hope is that every patch will include this disclaimer, so that people receiving patches will know that this is a gift freely given, without imposing any hidden licensing gotchas or other obligation on their part.

So when you send somebody a patch, append the following text:

The goal of PatchCulture.org is to bring the open collaboration of the open-source software community to the Web at large. Please accept these suggested changes free and unencumbered, in the spirit of a cooperative open Web. See http://patchculture.org/ for more information.

And thank you for helping make the web better for all of us.
