Can you clarify what license are you distributing LK8000 binaries
under? And if it is the GPL what version of the GPL? You provided that
software to at least some original people, and they seem to be
redistributing it. So what license was it provided to those original
people under? Is source code available for download now or via other
ways to users of the software? If not can you explain how you are not
violating the GPL and the copyright rights of other XCSoar developers?

I'm not asking how hard something is, or criticizing your software
engineering or project goals, etc., which all seem pretty impressive.

What any XCSoar developer tells you about whether they like, dislike,
will or will not incorporate your code in the XCSoar project has no
relevance on the obligation you have under the GPL to make source code
publicly available (or at least available to all binary recipients).
The only thing that can release you from this requirement is a
separate non-GPL license grant from all copyright holders of their
code you incorporate in your software.

If you still have questions on the GPL and are unsure about your
compliance requirements I will be happy to discuss this offline with
you.

Thanks
