For starting out a new program on Berlios that is to be developed by a team of people, GPL probably is the best way to go.

It's OK with me if you call it "FEMM3D". I've been interested in a 3D version for a while, but I haven't had the time to get anything off the ground myself. I think it's great that you're taking the initiative to actually get the 3D effort underway.
