You're asking in the wrong place; that's a question for the authors of
the GPL, and for the copyright holders in Gnumeric.

The authors of the GPL have an FAQ document you will likely find
informative <URL:http://www.gnu.org/copyleft/gpl-faq.html>.

As far as Python is concerned, the license of Python does not require
you to release your code.

Consult the FSF, and the Gnumeric copyright holders, and your legal
advisor, for the rest of your question.
