For clarification, paid or non-paid applications have nothing to do
with GPL.  You can *commercially* release any of your GPL-ed products.
 Also, like the GPL, the LGPL does *not* allow one to make a product
proprietary, just allow proprietary software to *link* to free (not
about price) software.

Best regards,
