At first read & study Free Software Definitiona and
http://www.gnu.org/philosophy/free-sw.html

and go through
http://www.gnu.org/licenses/license-list.html#GPLIncompatibleLicenses
The following licenses are free software licenses, but are not
compatible with the GNU GPL.

Microsoft Public License (Ms-PL)

    This is a free software license; it has a copyleft that is not
strong, but incompatible with the GNU GPL. We urge you not to use the
Ms-PL for this reason.

Microsoft Reciprocal License (Ms-RL)

    This is a free software license. It's based on the Microsoft
Public License, and has an additional clause to make the copyleft just
a little bit stronger. It's also incompatible with the GNU GPL, and we
urge you not to use the Ms-RL for this reason.
