   The disclaimer must be provided by Apache projects during incubation because some Apache projects may have code that was not licensed as Apache License 2.0 at the time the project moved to Apache. Those projects may need to go through a process of re-licensing components or appending the project notifications to their license files and notice files. The intention of the disclaimer is to allow incubating projects to make releases without necessarily having identified and resolved all such issues.
   
   Annotator has no outside work that would be under any other license, but we are required to provide the disclaimer during the incubation process. The disclaimer is there so that you know that the Apache Software Foundation does not guarantee that our license is complete and accurate and that you may wish to inspect the code to make your own determination as to whether the LICENSE and NOTICE files completely describe the correct status of the work.
