   While that eliviates the problem from a ci perspective (if the bucket would 
be owned by the CI owners), it's still a red flag for our users. 
   
   I'm afraid that companies prefer to stay away from the execution of an 
arbitrary native library that is downloaded from the internet - no matter 
whether it is backed by a hash or not. It's inevitable in some cases, but we 
want to reduce the possiblity of compliance scanners flagging us and thus 
making the usage of the MXNet more complicated than it has to be.
   
   I think the only acceptable way is if the library is getting produced as 
part of the build process that is entirely retrieved from source. These are 
also the tenants Apache employs - Apache project just not make any binary 
releases in any form. Thus let's best stick to that as well :)
