I find myself doing this frequently. I'm very license agnostic and take
everything that falls in the range of free software. Leiningen (a package
manager/environment for clojure) defaults to erlang public license - so I
often go with EPL when I develop clojure. Other than that: If I feel
software is release ready, I stick a 2 clause BSD license on it.
