Is Python API redistributable?

Hello.

Is Python API redistributable (i.e. EULA 1.K. "Redistributables" or some OSS) ?

After installation, I tried to read the license of Python API ( $INSTALLDIR/python ) and to check if it is redistributable.

I couldn't find a comment about Python API in

$INSTALLDIR/licensing/readme.txt

$INSTALLDIR/licensing/deployment_tools/redist.txt

$INSTALLDIR/licensing/install_dependencies/redist.txt

$INSTALLDIR/python/python3.5/openvino/inference_engine/__init__.py

Following EULA 1.K, "Redistributables" are the files listed in redist.txt.

EULA 2.1.A. (4) grants me to distribute the Redistributables and Derivative Works of the Redistributables.

Then, is it not granted to distribute Python API (especially, $INSTALLDIR/python/python*/openvino/inference_engine/ie_api.so) ?

If I distribute python product with openvino, should I develop a python wrapper of C++ api by myself ?

environment information

openvino: 2020.1

OS: Linux (Ubuntu 18.04.4 LTS)

FPGA: none

I'm sorry that it's ambiguous.

The above question is about Intel® Distribution of OpenVINO™ Toolkit 's Inference Engine Python* API.
