Why Apache-2.0
--------------
This runner serves RF-DETR (Roboflow), which is licensed under the Apache
License 2.0 — a permissive license. Unlike Ultralytics YOLO (AGPL-3.0), RF-DETR
imposes no copyleft or network-use source-offer obligation, so this runner and
the combined work it forms are distributed under Apache-2.0. The RF-DETR Nano,
Small, Medium, and Large model weights are likewise Apache-2.0.

Note: the RF-DETR XLarge and 2XLarge variants require the separate `rfdetr_plus`
package and are licensed under PML 1.0, NOT Apache-2.0. This runner ships only
the Apache-2.0 variants (Nano/Small/Medium/Large) by default; do not enable the
Plus variants without reviewing the PML 1.0 terms.
