OK. Since I am using also some others "cherry picking" pieces from other sources. I have noted the source and licences (or some dont have any) and I will make a list of this contributions, I will send then to you if you want have a look and evaluate it.
I like the idea to email the authors of this pieces telling them that I am using it and check if there are any concerns about the licenses.

As long as you keep the original license and we are not violating the
terms of that license, I think we are OK.
