Im not sure they are overstepping, they are required to pursue each thing that could be perceived as a violation of their trademark lest it be considered unenforced. Really I doubt this is going anywhere, Im sure that SPARC will "work out a deal" with SFE. Right now they might just be jumping through hoops. Of course, I know next to nothing about this sort of stuff, I just assume that people behave semi logically.

I <3 SparkFun!
