title: What Source Code License to use for your project?
body: <p>I am starting this question to try and make a central point developers can use to choose what Source Code License to use for their projects.</p>
  
  <p>What I am looking for out of this question are the following for the Licenses:</p>
  
  <ol>
  <li>A short description of the License</li>
  <li>What type of projects should this License be used for</li>
  <li>Examples of existing projects that use this License</li>
  </ol>
  
  <p>Some of the Licenses that I have in mind are the following:</p>
  
  <ul>
  <li>Apache License 2.0</li>
  <li>Artistic License/GPL</li>
  <li>Eclipse Public License 1.0</li>
  <li>GNU General Public License v2</li>
  <li>GNU General Public License v3</li>
  <li>GNU Lesser General Public License</li>
  <li>MIT License</li>
  <li>Mozilla Public License 1.1</li>
  <li>New BSD License</li>
  </ul>
