Package: cups
Version: 1.3.8-all

As you know, now CUPS is owned by Apple, Inc. since Feb. 2007.
 http://www.cups.org/articles.php?L476+TFAQ+Q
and you can see the following messages about the trademark.
---
CUPS and the CUPS logo are trademarks of Apple Inc. All other
trademarks are the property of their respective owners.
---
(Note: there is no announcement about the term "Common Unix Printing System")

However, we still have a wrong trademark in the descriptions of CUPS
related packages(*).
---
The terms "Common UNIX Printing System" and "CUPS" are trademarks of
Easy Software Products (www.easysw.com), and refer to the original
source packages from which these packages are made.
---

This should be changed as follows:
---
The term "CUPS" is trademark of Apple, Inc., and refer www.cups.org to
the original source pachages from which there packages are made.
---


(*) CUPS related package means:
cups (cupsys)
cups-common (cupsys-common)
cups-dbg (cupssys-dbg)
libcups2 (libcupsys2)
cups-client (cupsys-client)
libcupsimage2 (libcupssimage2)
libcups2-dev (libcupsys2-dev)
libcupsimage2-dev (libcupsysimage2-dev)
cups-bsd (cupsys-bsd)
