I wanted to bring to your attention the fact that keras-ocr does not have an open source license attached to it. This means that it is unclear to users what they are and are not allowed to do with the code.

As an open source project, it is important that we make it easy for others to understand how they can use, modify, and distribute our code. Without a license, potential contributors may be hesitant to contribute to the project, and it may be unclear to others how they can legally use our code.

I would like to request that we add an open source license to the repository as soon as possible. This will help us to build a strong and healthy community around our project.

There are many open source licenses to choose from, and I would be happy to help with selecting and adding the appropriate license if needed. Here are a few common options:

MIT License Apache License 2.0 GNU General Public License (GPL) Thank you for your consideration, and I look forward to seeing the project thrive with the addition of an open source license.

Apologies. I see that it has an MIT license. Issue resolved.
