braindotai removed a comment on issue #9686: [Discussion] MXNet 2.0 Roadmap 
(was: APIs that might be a good idea to break in 2.0)

   I have some suggestions down here:-
   - MXNet only has 4 prebuild datasets, I think we should have more...
       Here are some important missing datasets-
         [KMNIST](https://github.com/rois-codh/kmnist), 
[EMNIST](https://www.westernsydney.edu.au/bens/home/reproducible_research/emnist),
 [LSUN](https://www.yf.io/p/lsun), 
[STL10](https://cs.stanford.edu/~acoates/stl10/), 
[SVHN](http://ufldl.stanford.edu/housenumbers/), 
[PhotoTour](http://phototour.cs.washington.edu/patches/default.htm), 
[SBU](http://www.cs.virginia.edu/~vicente/sbucaptions/), 
[Flickr8k](http://nlp.cs.illinois.edu/HockenmaierGroup/8k-pictures.html), 
[Flickr30k](http://web.engr.illinois.edu/~bplumme2/Flickr30kEntities/), 
[Cityscapes](http://www.cityscapes-dataset.com/), 
[SBD](http://home.bharathh.info/pubs/codes/SBD/download.html) and FakeData(A 
fake data generator that generates fake images, useful for GANS)
   
   - As we got the 
[Estimator](https://github.com/apache/incubator-mxnet/pull/15009/commits) for 
gluon, (which will be supposedly released with MXNet 1.5), we can have many 
predefined estimators(very similar to Scikit Learn, with awesome gpu support), 
for example:-
   ```python
   from mxnet.gluon import estimator
   model = estimator.linearregression
   model = estimator.logisticregression
   model = estimator.ridgeregression
   model = estimator.lassoregression
   model = estimator.knearestneighbors
   model = estimator.kmeansclusttering
   model = estimator.svm
   ....etc
   ```
   These classical ML algorithms work better than DL for some specific tasks 
and many users want such ML algorithms with gpu support, so that'd be quite 
awesome.
   
   - As I said in my previous comment, we need to have a good and updated 
website design, for instance in the bottom of 
[homepage](https://mxnet.apache.org/) even the "copyright(2017 - 2018)" 
statement is not updated, which sounds like MXNet is no longer sponsored by the 
Apache Incubator(Is this True?). 
       - Also, you can't access this [useful 
link](http://mxnet.incubator.apache.org/versions/master/tutorials/python/) at 
all, because the link is unnecessarily and massively hidden inside the website. 
       - We should update the benchmarks available 
[here](https://mxnet.incubator.apache.org/versions/master/faq/perf.html)
       - We should put these [FAQ 
tutorials](https://mxnet.incubator.apache.org/versions/master/faq/index.html) 
available directly from our default homepage, because these are really good 
tutorials(but hidden under docs) for a beginner in MXNet.
       - We should have more information about MXNet displayed right on the 
homepage(instead of provided links), for example, its key features, ecosystem, 
community, a link to [holy book of MXNet](http://d2l.ai/), 
[GluonCV](https://gluon-cv.mxnet.io/), 
[GluonNLP](https://gluon-nlp.mxnet.io/)... etc.
