Relicensing would involve moving the package to non-free, that's correct. I could try some trademark stunt, but I don't want to spend any money on a trademark registration. I don't see why such cases (including yours) can't be resolved amicably. It's not rocket science, after all. > How many packages could be in this situation? I don't expect it to be > many.
