As I understand it, the GPL does not require attribution. You are perfectly 
within your rights to strip all reference to Drupal from your site, etc. The 
main requirement is that if you distribute Drupal with any changes, that you 
provide the source code as well.

That said, I'm sure the devs and community appreciate the plug when 
possible. ;)
