Question about current BSD-4-Clause License

[fakerybakery]

Hi, Thank you for releasing this awesome project! I am interested in integrating whisperX into some open-source projects. I noticed that the license was BSD-4-Clause, is there any chance that could be changed? If not, do I need to include "This product includes software developed by Max Bain." in all marketing for the open source project, including tweets? Thanks!

@m-bain one last quick repo mention from rummaging in the pile of stuff - the above license request comes from someone who is v.active on ML projects (judging by https://github.com/fakerybakery ) and is now on https://huggingface.co/mrfakename so if you could maybe reassure them that you'll not be offended by not requiring to be name-checked in every tweet! then I guess your project will get some positive traction from a prolific contributor. Cheers!

@fakerybakery - just a minor request, was browsing issues here to see if I could make sense of what was going on here (because at 391 outstanding issues it's likely to be an overwhelming situation for a single repo owner) and was wondering if you could adjust the title of your issue to something more helpful please - like "Request for advice re: current BSD-4-Clause License".

One-word titles save time for the author at the expense of wasting time for the reader..

Some people browsing will suddenly wonder if there is a problem with the license.. others who might be helpful might just ignore it assuming based on title that someones just not bothered to look at the main page.

Sure, short titles are good, but too-short wastes more time than slightly longer would, isn't a good example to others and is counterproductive to issue resolution.

Now, I shall thank you both and take my pedantic leave..

@deep-pipeline thanks for the input! I’ll change the title
