Please state license

[alerque]

I realize this wasn't originally developed to be released as a project, but it the code has been posted and no license has been declared. This leaves a really weird limbo situation where the worst-faith actors are the most free to take advantage of the situation but honest actors who build systems that stick to licensing terms can't do anything with this at all.

It also inhibits contributions! You state in the readme that you'd be interested in accepting contributions which helped make this into a package and made it more usable. I'd be willing to contribute some towards that, but not until the licensing is clarified.

Issue #16 also broached this topic, but the OP unilaterally decided what they wanted it to be and then closed the issue and ran away. I also think the MIT license would be a good candidate for this project, but the original author(s) need to state their intention in this regard.

I'd be happy to help with advice on what different licenses are good for and how to pick. Once you do pick I'm happy to contribute the proper files to this repo so that it's properly licensed and usable by others. But I can't make the call what that license will be.

I believe this fall into the non-commercial space. As the original data sets do not allow you to use them for commercial purposes. I actually bought a beam2 whiteboard system and trained my own data set based on their paper.

Can we please get a resolution to this so that we can start contributing?

@sjvasquez can you please state a license for the project?

@chavenor: I know I'm necroposting but did you have any luck creating your own training set? If so, were you able to get Q, X, Z working?
