Yes of course. However, I think we don't have to reinvent the wheel. I'm
almost sure there are projects in Apache (either incubating or not)
which have similar general properties like MXNet. e.g. from Apache
reports, we can see which incubating (or not) project has a lot of
monthly revolutionary changes or issues while needs several different
contribution expertise. Then I can see how they work :)

At Apache we aren't alone. If we couldn't find any doc via above, then
we have Apache Incubating Experts [1]. They're here and are experts for
such situations. I can ask them for any clues.

But firstly let list what are problems: (I added following which I think
summarizes them via reading all of this thread)

1) It seems JIRA causes overhead works while makes it harder to new
contributors to file an issue.
2) We don't have a document about how to manage a project using Apache
INFRA with these properties: has a lot of monthly revolutionary changes
and issues. needs several different contribution expertise e.g. C++,
Scala, Python and etc. has a lot of concurrent committers working on
different aspects and so may have no time to review others.
contributions have different skill levels but their management is flat
and not modular.

@dev could you please update/delete or add to these if is needed? then
when completed, I can research or discuss them with experts mentioned :)

Thanks in advance!
