I have two things to say about this;
1. It sounds like MIT/X11 is most in line with what you want. It
pretty much says in laymans terms; "Take this and o what you want with
it. You can use it commercially. You don't have to open-source your
stuff. You cant blame me if it breaks something."
2. I _STRONGLY_ suggest reading the license you pick fully before
commiting to it. You cannot unhatch an egg.
