I was thinking of charging a fee for a commercial product and posting
full-source code of all the modified GPL code it uses for free.
Would GPL force me to provide the source code for an entire commercial
product?
Also, could I could abstract all of the modified GPL software into a
separate shared library (e.g., libgplmod.so) and post all of the code for
free, then create a closed-source commercial product that uses something in
'libgplmod' and charge a fee?
If GPL forces me to provide the source-code of any software that links to
'libgplmod' then you would have to rely on the following:
Some people are not going to want to deal with the source code; they can
choose to pay a fee instead. What they would get from the fee could
include the compiled binaries, links to the source code, manual,
consulting options, ect...
in order to many any money...
