I read it as, "Lawyers tell us this is a contract.  We don't really care 
if it is a legal contract or not as long as it governs the 
redistribution of this work."

Note that here you have specific obligations made on both parties to the 
contract.  Offer + Acceptance + Consideration = ?

IANAL, but....
