With v3.1, we're moving from the Apache 2 to the MIT license for the Bootstrap code (not the docs). We're in the process of collecting permissions from all Bootstrap contributors with code still part of the project to make this happen. For details, please see [#2054](https://github.com/twbs/bootstrap/issues/2054).
By contributing your code, you agree to dual-license your contribution under the [Apache 2](https://github.com/twbs/bootstrap/blob/master/LICENSE) and [MIT](https://github.com/twbs/bootstrap/blob/master/MIT) licenses.
