Good afternoon Denis, Nice to meet you, Hello to you too Alexey. So I'm not sure if it will be me or another member on our team, but I wanted to start the discussion. We are investigating/integrating ignite into our ML platform. In addition We have already done a separate tensor flow implementation for Neural Network using the C++ libraries. And we were about to take the same approach for XGBoost, when we saw the 2.8 announcement. So before we went that route I wanted to do a more proper investigations as to where things were, and where they might head.

The contributions are highly appreciated and we'll be glad to see you among our contributors, especially, if it helps to make our ML library stronger. But first things first, let me introduce you to @Alexey Zinoviev <zaleslaw....@gmail.com> who is our main ML maintainer. - Denis On Thu, Mar 26, 2020 at 1:49 PM Carbone, Adam <adam.carb...@bottomline.com> wrote: > Good Afternoon All > > I was asked to forward this here by Denis Magda.
