Fair enough, in that case for this project the BSD or Apache licenses make the most sense as to use. The reason being (as I understand it*) that to use the GPL would mean that anything written with "Pearl on Rails" would then have to be licensed using the GPL; this would be grossly unfair to developers who should be free to license their own software as they see fit. *If I am wrong on this point please correct me, the 'viral' part of the GPL has always confused me.
