"Mostly" GPL? You mean "not GPL".

I really wish people wouldn't invent their own licences. It adds 
complexity and confusion to the licencing space. Unless you're a lawyer, 
and sometimes even if you are a lawyer, any modification you make to an 
established licence could be invalid, or possibly even invalidate the 
entire licence.

Licence proliferation hurts us all. Just say No.
