Is the layout model coming back?

It served my project extremely well, so I was disappointed to see it deleted.

@hegghammer we have developed new layout models for docling. Additionally we have decoupled the layout as an independent model.
You can access all our models here: https://huggingface.co/ds4sd/models

For layout detection, I recommend you to use our new model "heron" which achieves higher precision: https://huggingface.co/ds4sd/docling-layout-heron
The old model is still accessible here: https://huggingface.co/ds4sd/docling-layout-old

@hegghammer if you depend on it, the layout model is also still available in this model repo on revision v2.2.0. Docling itself is also relying on tagged revisions of this.

The new repo (docling-layout-old) should be easier to load! But still, if you are using semantic versioning, you really shouldn't make changes like this in a minor version!

I also notice that the model_size configuration changed from a scalar to an object, which is pretty annoying.

Will you also be moving TableFormer to a separate repository?
