Some people recommend the phrase "This software is not intended for
safety critical use" in the license or comments. Particularly over here
where you can't disclaim certain liability for injury. The theory
roughly going that if it injures someone it was safety critical and you
told them so its not your problem

Much like the java thing about not using it in medical equipment and
nuclear plants 8)
