OSS License compatibility question #685
Description
There’s possible confusion on the license of your repository when you combine other open-source code.
The modules tensorboardX/event_file_writer.py, tensorboardX/beholder/video_writing.py, tensorboardX/beholder/shared_config.py,
tensorboardX/beholder/beholder.py, tensorboardX/beholder/file_system_tools.py, examples/demo_beholder.py, tests/event_file_writer_test.py, and tests/record_writer_test.py claim their licenses as Apache-2.0.
However, the license of your whole project is shown as the MIT license in LICENSE, 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.
If possible, you can fix them in one of the following ways:
- select another proper license for your repository, e.g., Apache-2.0
- update this license with term exceptions added for specific modules
- remove these modules if they are not actually useful
