Although disappointingly it still fails to credit Majel for her accomplishments, as her husband Gene was credited for his, at least it now it scrapes up the bare minimum of saying her name:
« The flight … will carry the ashes or DNA of notable individuals such as sci-fi legend and Star Trek creator Gene Roddenberry … and his wife of nearly 22 years, Majel Barrett Roddenberry. »

i'm grateful to report that Cybernews Senior Journalist Stefanie Schappert responded (via email) to mine (and apparently others') feedback:

« The flight … will carry the ashes … of Star Trek creator Gene Roddenberry, who passed in 1991, and his wife. »
She has a name! It's Majel Barrett. I credit Gene Roddenberry's creativity originating the series … but Majel Barrett will always be 100% more loveable and memorable. Just ask Odo.
Please don't gloss over the impressive achievements of amazing women like Majel Barrett as though they're merely accessories to more noteworthy men.
