Changes in the wind

Considering changing the license. To be honest, I could care less what license this is released under. I'm considering adopting the Apache Public License as part of merging projects with a friend. My main concern with licensing is that I don't want my license to turn anyone off from using or contributing to the project. I hear GPL is a turn off for many users because it doesn't play nicely with other licenses. Does APL work better and elicit a less negative response? Does anyone even care, since I haven't released any files yet, and thus don't have any users?

The project name will definitely be changing in the very near future. Bane and I initially named the project ICPr0n as a joke. I needed a name and didn't have one yet, and he suggested that we both knew what people would really use an image viewer for. Now that I'm starting to think about releasing files, I don't want "ICPr0n" on my resume. Currently leaning toward CFree... but suggestions of better names are more than welcome.
