In order to have a Theme hosted in the directory, a developer must release *all* Themes under a GPL-compatible license. Therefore, all commercial Themes, whether an up-sell version of the directory-hosted Theme, or a separate Theme entirely, must be GPL-compatible. Thus, the developer must still list the license for all Themes, free and/or commercial.</div>
