I am by no means certain of this, but if my memory serves, that
copyright was assigned to SPI by someone in Debian. Perhaps you could
talk to the DPL so SPI could have some sort of formal word from Debian
that it wants the license changed?
Or better yet, e-mail the trademark list --
spi-trademark@lists.spi-inc.org.
