Hi, I'd like to report a missing license in bartowski/DeepSeek-R1-Distill-Qwen-32B-GGUF. I noticed that this model was quantized from deepseek-ai/DeepSeek-R1-Distill-Qwen-32B, which is licensed under MIT License — a permissive open-source license that allows for reuse and redistribution as long as the original license is included. But the thing is, this model currently doesn’t include any license information, which can lead to confusion for downstream users.

⚠️ Without a license attached:

  • By default, users technically don’t have legal permission to use, modify, distribute, or even deploy the model
  
  • This also technically blocks any downstream reuse, even for research or open-source work
  
  • Other teams might want to build on this model but may hesitate or be unable to because the usage rights are unclear
  
  • This can unintentionally limit the model’s impact, even if your intention was to make it openly available!

🔹 Suggestion:

It might be helpful to:

  • Adding a tag of the MIT License (or a compatible license) to the model
  
  • Adding the MIT License (or a compatible license) to the repo or model card

Totally appreciate the work on this — just hoping to make things a bit smoother and safer for downstream users! 😊Let me know if I misunderstood anything — happy to help!

Thanks for your attention!
