What other Apache projects do (Spark in particular for various reasons) are not 
always good examples to follow. But you'll note in this case it:
a) Calls it Apache Spark
b) Includes a link to space.apache.org
b) In this case it seem clear it is a 3rd party, unlike TVM.

IMO It should also have a trademark disclaimer and I’m not sure that the way 
they have set up latest would be compliant with ASF policy. Ignoring the latest 
tag you note that the tags also match Apache releases.

The docker images, if you found them on their own, give no indication that is 
an Apache project or that this are not official releases. If I search for 
“docker tvm” I get this link [1]. There is very little information on that 
page, no recognition of Apache trademarks and no disclaimers.There are also 
versions tagged that are not Apache releases. 

Why didn’t the project use Infra’a docker offering? [3]

A large number of downloads may indicate that users are using the docker images 
rather than the offical sources. This may be fine if they are released 
versions, but is probably not be fine if they are not. Hence the latest tag 
being problematic.

I find it odd in the TVM case there are more releases in Docker using the same 
numbering system as the Apache releases. Why this discrepancy?

Thanks,
Justin
