Mistral weights are released under an Apache 2.0 license, but Llama 2 weights are released under a proprietary license that prohibits use by large organizations and imposes usage restrictions, violating terms 5 and 6 the Open Source Definition[0]. Even if you accept that a model with a proprietary training dataset and proprietary training code can be considered "open source", there's no way Llama 2 qualifies. For consistency with existing definitions[1], Llama 2 should be labeled a "weights available" model.
