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.
