Sylvain, YOU and the community, particularly the community, will get more out of it if you leave Youssef alone than if you wave a red flag in his nose. He's that kind of a person. And I cannot say I blame him for it.

The license for a DLL or shared library should be LGPL. I realize you are stuck at GPL. But, you can do an Obama and not be a stickler for enforcement. This is one instance where that might be appropriate.

  SDR# is strange: it doesn't provide even sources of plugin, but
plugin linked directly with library become GPL for sure. Another
question, why SDR# itself doesn't become GPLes, when it links with
library via dynamically-loaded plugin (exactly same situation as with
my project).

Mmmm ... when we first evaluated SDR#, the source of the plugin was
available and the plugin was shipped separately _without_ any
automatic installer (and yes, this makes a difference, automation
makes it circuvemption of copyriht covered by DMCA or equivalent).

Thanks for bringing this to our attention, we'll take the appropriate actions.


Cheers,
