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

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. -- \ “The cost of a thing is the amount of what I call life which is | `\ required to be exchanged for it, immediately or in the long | _o__) run.” —Henry David Thoreau | Ben Finney
