Oh, I understand now.

If I had it listed in the readme that the texture could be used with no restrictions, he most likey could include it but if there are restrictions in the readme , he would need to ask first.

A few of my free textures have no restrictions and it states that in the readme file, others are more restricted.

Let me introduce you to my multiple personalities. :)
