I noticed that in the footer of F8 a few days ago doing support for a
client.  I also just found this in Mansion:
http://themes.svn.wordpress.org/mansion/0.2/instructions.html



  <h3 class="fancy">License Details</h3>

			<p>There are a few things to know that you can and cannot do with
this theme:</p>

			<ul>

				<li>Give credit where credit is due.  Keeping the credit link
intact is <strong>recommended</strong>.  If you want to remove the
credit, consider becoming <a
href="http://graphpaperpress.com/members/signup.php">a developer-level
member of Graph Paper Press</a>.</li>

				<li>You <strong>may</strong> use this product for personal and
commercial purposes.</li>

				<li><strong>DO NOT</strong> resell or redistribute this product in
whole or part (including derivative works).</li>
