Thank you! The modus-themes are already GPLv3+ licensed and copyright
is assigned to the FSF.
My understanding is that I can distribute their colours---just the
colours---under Creative Commons CC0 (I am their sole author). My
concern was whether there could be complications for Emacs, since the
modus-themes are a part of it. What I have gathered thus far is that
such an arrangement should not be a problem.
I will seek to confirm this conclusion and act accordingly. Again, my
priority is Emacs: I will not jeopardise it.
