Licensing keras-retinanet #139

Closed hgaiser closed 5 years ago

hgaiser commented 5 years ago

Hi, I am one of the maintainers of the keras-retinanet repository.

It appears you copied our repository into your project, which in itself is fine, but only if you keep the LICENSE file as well and state any changes you made to the code. You might want to check for other copied projects to see if similar problems arise there.

On a sidenote, why not use git submodules? If you want to make custom changes, I suggest making a git submodule from a forked repository. This will make it significantly easier to keep track of updated changes and will keep the LICENSE file in place.

@OlafenwaMoses any update on this? This can simply be resolved by adding the LICENSE file. Changing the structure to use submodules would be cleaner, but requires a bit more work.

Thanks for reaching out. I have been pretty busy recently. I will review and make the necessary updates to the structure.

Meanwhile, I have added the license for keras-retinanet. See details via link below.

Thank you for the reply, this issue can be considered resolved then. I do think submodules would help in keeping up-to-date with dependencies (it seems your keras-retinanet is already quite old), but I understand the issue of being too busy ;)
