Once you deploy your app you are not required to link web2py (although
that wold be nice, the more people know about it, the more people use
it, the more support you get long term).

You are also free to zip your app with the web2py binary in a single
zip file, assuming web2py is unmodified. If you distribute such a
thing you must make clear that include web2py. You must include a
license that says "includes web2py" and you must include the web2py
license, you must have a list of files and clarify which ones are
yours and which ones are web2py's.

If you were to bundle in a binary a modified version of web2py then
you are essentially making a new product that includes web2py code. In
this case you must release everything under GPL.

Hope this clarifies it.
