Well I am keeping in mind of the GPL license. I can use it without releasing my code.

Reason is for the famous gpl webservice loophole (google it, reason they invented AGPL)

My project is split up in 2 parts : MS-PL licensed (closed source..) / GPL licensed code.

The GPL code is a windows service hosting the GnucCOM object, communication with this service is done purely using webservices (more precise : WCF) so no 'dynamic' linking is done!

I will release the service under GPL with full source access. People could use it as a base to make their own clients if they wanted using the same core

Btw : where did my main post go ? :s

Just go to http://sharpwire.blogspot.com if you want more info, and you can follow twitter if you want to be there once I release more GPLed code
