It may also mean that they considered it the easiest way to avoid an expensive legal dispute. It clearly says "Possible" in what is quoted in the debian bug report. I don't understand who's who on the LaunchPad bug because there's no sigs and the pages linked from posters' names seem uninformative. If you're reasonably sure there's an infringement, I think you should contact ftpmasters and the various release managers as soon as possible. I don't think debian-legal can help much if it's a straight dispute/remove choice - sorry.
