Opensource License about tts-generation-webui HOT 4 CLOSED

Hi, I understand completely!

I am aiming for MIT/Apache 2.0 compatibility, I believe I haven't included any libraries that force a copyleft license, although, honestly, it feels like a minefield. With the one-click-installers I am a bit more concerned if they are MITtable.

Let me take a look at it.

This is one problem: lameenc should probably get excluded (even though it's "parent" is MIT, but I'm pretty sure it's not even being used). Maybe by modifying the install command/setup to not install this package would the whole "software" fall within MIT.

However, this is a good example - even while my code would be MIT, the second you run pip install etc, you are into GPL territory.

Ok, python lameenc will be LGPL for future releases (so if you want to have LGPL right now for lameenc package you have to install it manually).
Next, diffq currently is CC BY NC 4.0 but it appears that it will become optional, if the demucs version is new enough it will work, otherwise do pip install demucs for the new version and then pip uninstall diffq if it still is present.
Finally, encodec has a MIT license for newer releases but it also has to be installed manually, the currently installed version 0.0.1 has CC BY NC 4.0 license.

With that in mind, we are heading for an actually plausible MIT license for the project, even after pip install.
