So, now I am asking on the mailing list. I am looking at setting up a 1.) new git repo at SourceForge for web/HTML content that is based on a Bootstrap template that is 2.) using a MIT license. Any concerns or problems with either point 1 or 2? Thank you. Original IRC/Discord posting: > — > 06/29/2022 > So, I have a question that will likely end up on the mailing list - but I need to get some initial feedback on here. I am looking at creating a new git repo at SF for some web content which uses a bootstrap template that was released under a MIT license. Does that present any conflict, problems, or headaches with any of the other open licenses already in use? Any problems in general with yet another license involved with the project?

IIRC you merely need to include the license text but otherwise can do what you want.
