I didn't read the thread but... Of course, you can make an application that uses the same database structure TinyERP creates and keep your code in another license. You could even create a new client that uses tinyerp modules via XML-RPC and keep that in your own license. But as soon as you inherit osv.osv and start using Tiny facilities you need it to be GPL. Though as you said, you can sell your product to third parties if you provide them the source code and the same rights you had. That is, your code will have to be released as GPL. > > I am not asking for legal advice.
