As long as you write your own license, it won't have any legal
problems, but what can cause trouble is to write the license.

And of course the license on the open source stuff. Because it's open
source does not necessarily mean you have the freedom to do anything you
want to; some have limitations to them and most explain the questions
you're asking too.
