License qualifier/calculator?

Hello!
Decided to write a class library. There was a problem with the choice of license: it is very difficult to understand all their diversity. Tell me, are there any convenient license calculators? I have the repository on GitHub, so I'm mostly interested in open source licenses.
It seems that such a question has already flashed somewhere on Habré, but neither a search here, nor even a search through Google, gave me a result.
Thank you!

I found a good diagram here: marakana.com/s/understanding_open_source_licenses , 1030/index.html

At least a part can be selected / weeded out by looking here:
en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Comparison_of_free_software_licenses
and here:
www.opensource.org/licenses/category
and reading the annotations here:
www.gnu.org/licenses/license-list.html

Short and clear - MIT or BSD. Well written - Apache. If there were cases of GPL-madness in the family, then LGPL :) I also remember this topic, but I don’t know how to look for it.

Didn't find what you were looking for?
