I started a thread about the Rust trademark policy on the debian-legal mailing list. <https://lists.debian.org/debian-legal/2021/06/msg00003.html> I participated in the Free Software Foundation's most recent Free Software Directory meeting. Several participants in the meeting where interested in the Rust trademark policy. I started a thread on the directory-discuss mailing list as was suggested in the meeting. <https://lists.gnu.org/archive/html/directory-discuss/2021-06/msg00000.html> The Free Software Foundation's licensing team will be taking a serious look at the Rust trademark policy issue (no time frame was given). <https://lists.gnu.org/archive/html/directory-discuss/2021-06/msg00001.html> After reading further on the topic and receiving feedback I have written an update to my understanding of the Rust trademark policy. <https://lists.gnu.org/archive/html/directory-discuss/2021-06/msg00000.html>
