Hello, endofexclusive. This project is really interesting.

Anyway, GPL v3 license is, IMO, a bit extreme for some code that must be linked statically to other. It would the linked code GPL v3 too.

What about using BSD or MIT?

Thanks

I dont see why you would need to link this with anything. Its a GDB server that runs on the Amiga. GPL is appropriate for a tool like this. Please use viral licenses.

Hello terriblefire, first of all my compliments for your hardware projects.

You are indeed right even if named stub this is actually a server.
