Which Licenses to ship within an NW.js - application?

I've just read the section about distributing at the wiki of nw.js

And since the binary is based on Chromium, multiple open source license > notices are needed including the MIT License, the LGPL, the BSD, the Ms-PL and an MPL/GPL/LGPL tri-license. (This doesn't apply to your code and you don't have to open source your code)

but I don't know where to find the licensing information I shall include for chromium . Or do I have to ship the general text of the mentioned licenses without any copyright information ?

Because I could not find more details about the licensing on NWjs web site I decided to contact the most active contributor to the source code on GitHub (Mr. Roger Wang), who kindly replied to my email by saying that

"Just include credits.html with your application. You can find it in the zip file of NW.js binary.".

I would anyway make the credits file accessible within the app, maybe you could have a menu item "About/Credits" and display the file with a short introduction to it.
