   > From the usability point of view, JavaCPP will also offer similar 
funcionalities. @saudet will you be open to consider if MXNet JavaCPP can be 
fully donated to Apache MXNet and maintained by community?
   
   Yes, that's what I'm offering. I would sign up as a contributor to make an 
initial contribution and also do what needs to be done to get it working for 
your purposes.
   
   > These two solution is very similar and potentially JavaCPP can bring some 
level of performance improvement. My only concern to JavaCPP is @szha initial 
question, how we are going to build/maintain the Java package.
   
   I'm sorry, I must have missed that question, and I'm not sure I see it 
above. Can you point it out just to be sure? I've since released a Gradle 
plugin, and I think that answers the question though. Here is an example that 
builds and packages bindings for zlib:
    * https://github.com/bytedeco/gradle-javacpp/tree/master/samples/zlib
   
   Just pop that in a script for GitHub Actions and what not and it works. The 
build.sh script does not need to build the libraries from scratch either. It 
can be modified to download and extract existing binaries, for example, like 
it's doing in the case of MKLML here:
   * 
https://github.com/bytedeco/javacpp-presets/blob/master/mkl-dnn/cppbuild.sh#L28
   
   Does this look satisfactory?
