Serious question:  Given the recent determination from the FSF about
WordPress, isn't this theme GPL licensed by default?  If not, why not?

They found javascript and CSS were not required to be GPL because they
are loaded by the web browser, not by wordpress itself, but that any
themes (whether or not they are "executable code") are considered
derivative work if a GPLd application is interpreting items in it,
which would seem to be the case here.

It is, of course, up to the myth copyright/left holder(s) as to
whether or not to enforce it.
