On the "Linux Tag", i have talked with someone of the FSF about this
topic. He said, that another posibility would be, to realize the
GPL-library support in a plugin (a dynamically loaded shared library)
and to distribute this plugin under the GPL. So, not necessarily the
complete code of the commercial application has to be opened. But, one
restriction is, that the main program has to run without the plugin as
well.

      greetings,  Torsten
