Thanks for taking your time to answer my question. Let me clarify a bit here. The plugin that I am going to modify will be released under GPL license. There are two parts an application and the plugin. The application will connect to these plugins. So we would be developing the application from the scratch and the plugin would be an improvement from the existing work which we are going to release in GPL. So just releasing the plugin in GPL would solve it rite? The application codes can remain our company property?
