Strictly speaking you should include each part author's names and information
about the license in the POV file. I believe that is part of the conditions in
the license for each part. That said I doubt anyone will be enforcing the policy
for such a use and due to historical usage and unknown legal issues the SteerCo
will strictly not act to enforce any license violations in generated images.
