trademark enforcement action.  For further details see the pull
requested linked below.

.

The cowsay repository's CONTRIBUTING.md says "Issues and pull requests
on that repository will be ignored.".  I submitted a pull request
.  I expect that
it will be ignored.

There is a fork of cowsay  that
claims to be maintained.  I have submitted a pull request to it as
