Please consider adopting a recognized open source license for the Pi3X model weights
Thank you for building and sharing Pi3X.
I’d like to suggest considering a recognized open source license for the Pi3X model weights.
The code is already released under Apache-2.0, a standard open source license, but the model weights are currently under CC BY-NC 4.0, which makes them strictly non-commercial. This can limit adoption and create uncertainty for users who would like to run, fine-tune, redistribute, or integrate the model into other projects.
Switching the weights to a standard license such as Apache-2.0, MIT, or BSD-3-Clause would make Pi3X easier to adopt, build upon, and integrate, and would better align the model release with the openness of the code.
If the goal is to make Pi3X broadly useful to the research and developer community, using a recognized open source license for the model weights would be a strong step in that direction.
