Potential confusion over licensing comment #575

Hi Vissl-folk,

I wanted to note some potential for confusion in one of the source files. In https://github.com/facebookresearch/vissl/blob/main/tools/object_detection_benchmark.py there is a comment giving 'Full credits' to a different Facebook project file ( https://github.com/facebookresearch/moco/blob/main/detection/train_net.py ). After the relicense of this project to MIT, this credits is a bit confusing as the other project remains under CC-NC.

The other file has no authors other than Facebook, so I'm not suggesting a concern about the licensing, just the potential for confusion. It would be nice if this is something you're able to clear up in the source file.
