 I can help. I'm pretty familiar with *US* trademark law, as this field
 is an area of interest for me, and my wife is a practicing trademark
 attorney, who was a trademark examiner at the USPTO earlier in her
 career. Please let me know what I can do to help.

Thanks Brian for volunteering.

Brian is now behind trademark@d.o, together with leader@d.o (whoever is
DPL at the time). As suggested, this is now documented at
www.debian.org/intro/organization

Cheers.

 Such version upgrades has been accepted some years ago but I forgot
 the packages names.

Thanks for the information; I upgraded the Debian wiki accordingly.
