I do believe in the benefit of MXNet community, MXNet 1.4 is a important release with many useful features for our users:
1. Java Inference API, JVM memory management, Julia APIs 2. Multiple important directional experimental features - Subgraph API, control flow operators, Topology aware all-reduce approach in distributed training 3. Enhancing so many user touching functionalities - ONNX operator coverage, new operators like trigonometric operators, Debugging operators 4. 75+ bug fixes 5. Documentation, tutorials, examples updates and issue fixes *RAT check failures is important and we will fix it up soon in the following release*. Holding off the release will further delay so many useful features for users through a stable release. In my opinion, it would be beneficial for MXNet community to make this release happen.
