You should always consult a lawyer for legal matters. What follows does
not constitute legal advice in any manner; it is for entertainment
purposes only.
You can only apply a license to a work for which:
* You are the original creator.
* You gain the right to apply a license to the work from a legal entity,
a person or a corporation, who has the right to grant you the right to
apply a license.
In other words, if you include somebody else's work in yours, their
license applies to their work, your license applies only to yours.

Programming is as much about organization and communication
as it is about coding.
Regardless of how small the crowd is, there is always one in
it who has to find out the hard way that the laws of physics
applies to them too.
