I think it would be hard for someone to charge for software if the source of
the same software is giving it away for free. Their 'profit margin', if any,
would be the value they could add to it.

It really depends on the nature of the system you want to create - the
ecosystem it needs to enter and the ecosystem you want to create.

Here are some licences that I think are worth a look:

* MIT
* Apache
* http://www.perlfoundation.org/artistic_license_2_0
