Comment (by zooko):

 Hm, I actually don't know what he means, but here are words that I think
 are jargony: {{{the PubGrid}}}...

 And, um, maybe {{{pubgrid is updated}}} -- perhaps people don't know what
 that means, and anyway I guess it is sufficient to say something like "It
 isn't intended to be reliable.".

 As for "is not a free backup service", let's say something like "It isn't
 intended to be used for backup — files stored on the pubgrid are not
 guaranteed to remain there forever."

 Maybe call it "the public demo grid" instead of "the pubgrid".
