If you're just building software for your own use then I don't think any of 
the licenses we've discussed with be problematic. It's all comes down to 
philosophical requirements.

If you're actually patching the software yourself for your own use then you 
might have to be careful with AGPL depending on how you deploy it. For the 
other licenses, unless you're redistributing the binaries, you don't need 
to worry about the differences between any of these licenses.
