It looks like the Tango devs are pretty much settled on BSD-only with some 
hack to get around the binary attribution thing: 
http://www.dsource.org/projects/tango/ticket/1701  (*Shrug*, well, at least 
it's not as insanely verbose and impenetrable as Apache 2.0...)

I *hate* licenses...(That's why I use the zlib one, none of the public 
domain problems, all of the freedoms that I've been told Boost offers, and 
none of Boost's idiotic over-verbosity.)
