As I am using the Routines taken from the ST Software so I guess you are
right that this is not a 100% clean solution ... maybe it would make
sense of keeping the binaries outside of the source.  => Has anyone from
the mailinglist experience with such a situation?

I also think that Kustaa Nyholm made a good point about the License
issue. In my opinion (and in my context) GPL works well for a
Flasher-utility. Whereas for Templates it is a different story as they
should also enable people to do whatever they would like to do. (maybe
WTFPL) is a good option for such a purpose
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/WTFPL - or rather BSD (2 or 3 clause for
GPL compatibility) if you dont like explicit language ;=)

best wishes, Georg O.
