Hello, This is an update on the current status of the license fixes (all details in the wiki linked below)–
1. I am constantly updating this wiki, so you can check it at any time to know the status - https://cwiki.apache.org/confluence/display/MXNET/MXNet+Source+Licenses 2. All 7 PRs have been merged however if anyone has any comments on these changes please let me know. 3. There are still 6-7 files that do not have a license and are failing the RAT check. These are files I was not entirely confident about adding an apache header to. 4. There is a list of file formats, files and directories that have currently been excluded from the RAT check. I have mentioned the exact reason for adding these to this list in the wiki. However, this list needs to be reviewed and validated. *Coming Up Later –* *1. *Once points 3 and 4 above have been fixed, I will set up a RAT job in CI which will run a nightly check (This is currently being run in a local Jenkins setup) 2. I will also add a rat-excludes file to the mxnet repo so that anyone can run a RAT check locally to check the licenses. I am still looking for the MXNet community and the Mentors to review the open questions in the wiki and help me resolve these before the upcoming release!
