(Microsoft maybe?) What was the original plan with GluonCV and GluonNLP? https://github.com/dmlc/gluon-nlp https://github.com/dmlc/gluon-cv While these are separate projects, they share the same Gluon name with MXNet Gluon, are hosted on MXNet.io, and besides using the ALv2 license the code is also licensed to the ASF: # Licensed to the Apache Software Foundation (ASF) under one # or more contributor license agreements. Are these projects on their way to being integrated in the MXNet project? Or are they going in the other direction? regards, Lieven > On Thu, Mar 28, 2019 at 2:04 PM Isabel Drost-Fromm <[email protected]> > wrote: > > > > > > > Am 28.
