The statement in the letter is:

"I wish integrate screenshots of results obtained with Grass Gis software."

If he refers to *his own* screenshots, then there is obviously no need
to obtain any permission.

If he refers to screenshots from the Web site:

... then I would say that we should apply a CC license for the
screenshots (GPL is for software...).
At this point proper citation would be sufficient.

Honestly, I don't fully understand the letter we received.
