Llama-Doctor-3.2-3B-Instruct

Hi,I'd like to report a missing license in prithivMLmods/Llama-Doctor-3.2-3B-Instruct. I noticed that this model was fine-tuned from meta-llama/Llama-3.2-3B-Instruct, but it's currently published under the mit license. There’s a potential conflict here, as the LLaMA 3.2 Community License includes restrictions on redistribution, sublicensing, and acceptable use, which are not enforced by the MIT License. This can create confusion for downstream users about what they are allowed to do with the model.

⚠️ Key incompatibilities with LLaMA 3.2 Community License:

Clause 1.b.i – Redistribution and Use:
  •  No license file included (should contain the LLaMA 3.2 Community License)
  •  "Built with Llama" is not clearly indicated


Clause 1.b.iii – Required Notice:
  •  Missing the following required text in a "NOTICE" file:
    “Llama 3.2 is licensed under the Llama 3.2 Community License, Copyright © Meta Platforms, Inc. All Rights Reserved.”

Clause 1.iv – Acceptable Use Policy:
  •  Meta’s Acceptable Use Policy is not mentioned or passed along to users

Clause 2 – Sublicensing and Relicensing:
  •  LLaMA 3.2 license does **not allow** sublicensing under a more permissive license such as MIT
  •  The MIT License permits nearly unrestricted commercial use, which contradicts Meta’s limits and conditions (e.g. commercial MAU threshold)

The MIT License allows:

  • Unrestricted commercial use
  • Sublicensing under more permissive terms
  • No obligation to preserve upstream restrictions

But the LLaMA 3.2 Community License explicitly prohibits relicensing, includes enforceable use restrictions (e.g., no surveillance, no discrimination, no legal decision-making), and requires strict downstream compliance — meaning it cannot be replaced or overridden by MIT.

🔹 Suggestion:

To resolve the mismatch, here are a few steps that might help bring things into alignment:

1.Replace the MIT license with the LLaMA 3.2 Community License, or clarify that the model weights are governed by Meta’s license while only code (if any) is MIT.

2.Add the following notice to the README or model card:

“Llama 3.2 is licensed under the Llama 3.2 Community License, Copyright © Meta Platforms, Inc. All Rights Reserved.”

3.Add a note that this model was built using Meta LLaMA 3.2 , and ensure any commercial users are made aware of Meta’s use-based restrictions and MAU thresholds.

Hope this helps! 😊 Let me know if you have any questions or need more info.

Thanks for your attention!
