Thanks.  Then, following the directions given in "Information for Maintainers
of GNU Software" document:

  <http://www.gnu.org/prep/maintain/html_node/Copyright-Papers.html>

I'm attaching the 'request-disclaim.changes' file, that should explain you how
to contact the FSF in order to put such disclaimer properly in place (legally
speaking).  I hope the directions given there are clear enough; if not, feel
free to ask for more information either on-list or off-list.

Thanks,
  Stefano
