So the training data was licensed with CC0 and is made available?

This seems to be a wrapper over Kokoro which is an Apache-licenced TTS model and library which has been out for over a year. That model lists about 10% of its approx 1000-hour training data but also says that all of its training data was CC, synthetic (by way of closed source TTs), or otherwise permissively-licensed.
