Huh, that becomes involved... In all logic, conveying code through a .py file 
or a .qgz doesn't change the fact that it is code, so I'd expect licensing 
rules to also apply to it. So if that Python code uses QGIS API, it is 
probably to be under the GPL (but that only affects those code snippets, not 
the rest of the project).
