License change from V1 #2

The first ConvNext has an MIT license. Might ConvNext V2 be open sourced in the future? It's sad to see licensing changes between V1 and V2.

To add to this, a CC-BY license for code is an unusual choice for a software license and is generally recommended against by creative commons.

While the CC-BY-SA 4.0 license is GPLv3 compatible, that is not true for CC-BY-NC-SA.

Maybe a new FacebookResearch policy? Same license used here

It is indeed because of a new facebookresearch policy. We are actively looking at other possibilities. We apologize for the inconvenience. CC @sdebnathusc

We appreciate your patience on this! We updated the licensing for the project and have accordingly updated the README - "This project is released under the MIT license except ImageNet pre-trained and fine-tuned models which are licensed under a CC-BY-NC"
