No, it's intended to mean that you can't, as a volunteer, go to someone and say "Mozilla agrees to do X", in such a way that they can then go and sue Mozilla if Mozilla doesn't do X. In other words, you can't agree to contracts on Mozilla's behalf. > Or even to what we promise to them in this > agreement or elsewhere?

Perhaps "make binding agreements or sign anything on behalf of Mozilla"?
