[theme-reviewers] WordPress Trademark

Chip,

1. The word "WordPress" isn't allowed on Theme/Author/Credit domain? Is it
allowed on sub-folder names? Like, wordpressdomain.com or
domain.com/wordpress/.
2. Can the Theme/Author/Credit link use WordPress logo (anywhere in the
page) since that licensed under GPL? (Everything on WordPress.org is GPL,
am I right?)
3. Is it required to obtain permission from WordPress Foundation to use
WordPress logo in the theme website logo that offers premium versions of
their free themes?

Thanks
