Alexander, (01)
There are some handy tools online. It will depend on how you decide to
license your ontology...i.e. as code, research product, etc. (Perhaps
both is appropriate to cover all uses?) (02)
Choose a license [1] is fairly straightforward, as is Creative commons
chooser [2]. I find OSS-watch to be sufficiently comprehensive. (03)
There are many handy summaries of licenses. I find this one [4] helpful
for the uninitiated. (04)

[2] http://creativecommons.org/choose/

I hope that helps. I'd be happy to hear what you decide to do as I am
going to be needing to do something similar in the near future. (06)
Cheers,
Brandon
