OK.

That's a dangerous attitude.  Licenses are there for a reason; you have
to obey them scrupulously.  Open-source software authors are generally just
as concerned about their copyrights as closed-source authors.

I don't mean to belabor the subject, but to protect yourself, I
suggest you gather all the software you intend to use, list all the
licenses, and then talk to a lawyer to see what is or isn't possible.
