I am not sure how much strict we (the Buildroot community) want to be
regarding such confidentiality footers. After all, it only says "may
contain confidential or privileged information", which means that it
may also contain public information. I'm not sure what other
open-source projects are doing? Apparently at
http://lists.infradead.org/pipermail/linux-mtd/2013-December/050573.html,
the Linux MTD maintainer rejected a patch due to a confidentiality
footer.

Peter, Arnout, Yann, what's your position on this?

(http://www.economist.com/node/18529895 is an interesting article on
the matter, probably useful to share with the relevant folks in
Orange :-))

Best regards,

Thomas
