Ideally we should clarify licensing information asap or stop distribution.

We would be in trouble even today if any authors questions us on
distributing their content without any written rights to do so.
Considering the amount of work required to clarify such licensing
details across so many themes, you should probably let the package get
orphaned and import it later when the licensing details are clarified
which you might consider doing along with other distribution maintainers
or strip down the package immediately to themes with clear licenses and
add more continuously when you get the licenses sorted out.
