This is tangential, but Lin, I noticed during the RC1 tests you said you tried it out on Windows and it worked for you. I'd like to get VS2017 or VS Code working, take Sandeep's setup content and possibly your Windows experience, and improve the MXNet Windows setup guide. I've tried it and failed. Multiple times. I also tried the MKLDNN instructions and failed. I tried the setup tools batch file and was hit with a lot of dependency errors. Some of the problem isn't in the MXNet docs, but in the dependencies' documentation, but I'm left to go figure that out on my own. Anyway, any help you can provide here would be great. Also, if any of you reading this has a sort of checklist or guide for Windows, I'd love to see it.
BTW, I'm using Windows 10 with an NVIDIA GeForce GTX 980, and was trying to use VS2017 Community Edition and MKL. I went to MKL after OpenBLAS wasn't installing/building.
