Citing from the GPL

2. You may modify your copy or copies of the Program or any portion of
it, thus forming a work based on the Program, and copy and distribute
such modifications or work under the terms of Section 1 above, provided
that you also meet all of these conditions:


        a) You must cause the modified files to carry prominent notices
        stating that you changed the files and the date of any change. 
        b) You must cause any work that you distribute or publish, that
        in whole or in part contains or is derived from the Program or
        any part thereof, to be __licensed as a whole at no charge to
        all third parties under the terms of this License__. 

I cannot read this differently than that bglight _must_ be released under GPL 
license.
