OSS License compatibility question #197

There’s possible confusion on the license of your repository when you combine other open-source code.

The modulesaocr/model/seq2seq_model.py andaocr/model/seq2seq.py claims their licenses as Apache-2.0. However, the license of your whole project is shown as the MIT license in LICENSE.md, i.e., less strict than Apache-2.0 on license terms, which may impact the whole license compatibility in your repository, thus confusing subsequent users and bringing possible legal and financial risks.

You can select another proper license for your repository, or update this license with exceptions for specific modules
