I don't doubt it's polite -- but if its not legally required, why not
give some people the option to be less verbose?

All those with big heads who will be offended by this, please step
forward and say (c) 1998 blah now.

Initially I know some people don't like all the messages linux spews
out, but after a while it doesn't bother people so much and often
turns out damned handy (a linux boot disk makes a great hardware
diganotics tool).

How about we just leave the boot message alone for now?
