AFAIK when you assigned the copyright to the FSF, the FSF returned to you almost all those rights, including the right to redistribute this same work under any license you like. So if you want, *you* can distribute (on your side) the whole of modus-themes under the CC0. There should be no problem with that. And of course you can also distribute just "their colors" under any license you like. [ Tho, I must admit I don't know what it means to distribute "just their colors". ] Stefan
