I think it's not clear enough what exactly you need. If you use code from the ASF it is released under the Apache software license, which basically means that you can use it for free without impact of your own code. If you want to bring your own project to the ASF its license will be changed to the ASL regardless what it was before. If you don't know about a license of your own project, that depends on your needs. Many non-Apache-projects use the ASL, other GPL, LGPL, MIT, Eclipse license, ... or no license. I don't know any matrix where these licenses are compared, but maybe there is one so finding the "right license for your project" would be easier.
