[plug] OpenSource License Headache...

I'd like to put a project on SourceForge which I've been working on for some 
time, but would like the whole peer-review, and other contributors. The 
registration process is listing a slew of different licenses.

Does anyone have any brief non-lawyer speak summaries of the main ones, and 
their differences to each other?

I'd rather not have the project embedded and sold for profit with other 
things, but, oh, I don't know!! Maybe I don't mind anyway! I'm just a 
programmer!! ^_^
