Section 4: Termination, suspension and variation

We may suspend, terminate or vary the terms of this license and any access to the code at any time, without notice, for any reason or no reason, in respect of any licensee, group of licensees or all licensees including as may be applicable any sub-licensees.

The license isn't exactly giving me warm fuzzies, the source is available, but it isn't GPL.

Reading through their license, it appears that people may only distribute the code, and the binaries non-commercially. There's nothing in there allowing people to modify in the distribute the modification. But I'm not a law talking person so maybe I got that wrong

Oh no :(. Another cool project being ruined by trying to invent it's own licence.

If they want to not make it free of price, they could make payments for model download or just do a paywall screen. Most people would prefer to pay some bucks for not having to compile app themselfs or having to get it from shady sources.
