I agree that the current wording cannot go live as an official Boost website.

I think that the current wording was just something copied and pasted in an effort to comply with a legal requirement since the new site collects information as part of the login process where the old site does not. The C++ Alliance has no desire to restrict anyone such as Boost users, library authors, maintainers, or anyone else. We are very happy to receive pull requests with new proposed text, and I would like to keep reminding everyone that the site is going to be a work in progress for years.

And again, we're happy to receive pull requests :) I do not think we should wait until the website is "perfect" because that is in truth unlikely to ever happen. What we need to do is publish this site sooner rather than later and let the community pitch in to help us polish it up further.

There are issues that can be fixed post-release and there are issues that should block the release. I think, this one is of the latter kind. Also, I don't see the reason to rush the new website. It's not like we don't have one right now.
