Rasmus,

Thanks for the offer :-) And I agree with you that it's bad form--or bad 
karma--for those sites to remove the copyright notice, purposely made 
tiny to minimize its intrusiveness. However, I don't think our license 
actually legally requires them to keep the copyright notice.

Perhaps they simply did not think that it was bad form. In which case, a 
friendly message might explain to them that even if something is free, 
it's good to acknowledge its authors. Or perhaps because it is offered 
free, there is even more of a reason to acknowledge its authors.

Cheers,

David
