 The copyright notices in bundled themes generally claim copyright for
 WordPress.org and, when appropriate, Automattic. They do not claim the
 copyright for contributors.

 One of the benefits of contributing to WordPress is that contributors
 license their code under the GPL rather than assign copyright to the
 WordPress Foundation or another entity.

 As such, the bundled theme licenses ought to include a copyright claim for
 contributors similar to that in the main WordPress `license.txt` file.
