Trying to summarizing the discussions, thanks @ANSHUMAN.TRIPATHY for bringing 
up the RFC :

- S0: Currently chainer deployment can go through the ONNX path. 
chainer->ONNX->tvm allows us to leverage the more robust ONNX path.
- S1: Because chainer -> ONNX stops developments, there is a concern that 
chainer->ONNX may no longer keep up to date, and was the main argument for 
introducing the chainer frontend. 

Both arguments has valid points, it would be great to hear thoughts from 
others. In the meanwhile, @masahi suggested, such conversion support could 
always be added as a library built on top of the tvm
