Re: [CANCELLED][VOTE] Apache MXNet (incubating) 1.2.1 release RC0

2018-07-02 Thread Anirudh
Hi Dave,

Thank you for your inputs. To give more context, the reason we are doing
the release is to fix a backwards incompatible change with the save_params
API. This issue impacted some of our users and the warning message in RC0
showed an alternative API for one use case but not the other when
save_params was called. We are fixing it to provide a warning message for
both use cases, so that users may not end up replacing save_params with the
wrong API.
My sincere apologies to the mentors, for creating additional work.

2018-07-02 Thread Anirudh
Hi,

We are cancelling this vote because we need to improve the warning message
when users use a deprecated API: `save_params`. We will address the issue
and send out a new release for another vote.

Thanks,

Hi Sergio,

The 1.2.0 release notes have been added to NEWS.md. Thanks for pointing
about CODEOWNERS file. Agree that it is not required in the source release
and I will add its removal to the release steps so that it can be removed
next time.

Re: [VOTE] Apache MXNet (incubating) 1.2.0 release RC2

2018-05-12 Thread Anirudh
Hi Justin,

Thank you! They were first added as part of this PR:
https://github.com/apache/incubator-mxnet/pull/5834. As you can see there
is a LICENSE in src/operator/contrib/ctc_include which is Apache v2.0
license. I am assuming that the intention was to keep the license of files
in the directory or subdirectory the same. I think we should be good to add
the header for Apache v2.0 license:
>  src/operator/contrib/ctc_include/detail/cpu_ctc.h
>  src/operator/contrib/ctc_include/detail/ctc_helper.h
>  src/operator/contrib/ctc_include/detail/gpu_ctc.h
>  src/operator/contrib/ctc_include/detail/gpu_ctc_kernels.h
>  src/operator/contrib/ctc_include/detail/hostdevice.h

Please confirm.

For the docs directory, we did something similar to what other popular
Apache projects like spark did:
https://github.com/apache/spark/tree/master/docs. (adding docs directory to
rat-excludes)

At this point I want to ask you what your blocking concerns are.
Is it only the CC-BY-2.5 license for DevGuide.md in googletest submodule or
is it also the missing headers for contrib and the broad rat excludes ?

Re: [VOTE] Apache MXNet (incubating) 1.2.0 release RC2

2018-05-11 Thread Anirudh
Hi Justin,

I looked at the big directories that were omitted in the RAT excludes file:
contrib/* and docs/*.
In contrib/, I found a few files which don't have a license or have a
license but not the full text:
  src/operator/contrib/psroi_pooling-inl.h
  src/operator/contrib/ctc_include/detail/cpu_ctc.h
  src/operator/contrib/ctc_include/detail/ctc_helper.h
  src/operator/contrib/ctc_include/detail/gpu_ctc.h
  src/operator/contrib/ctc_include/detail/gpu_ctc_kernels.h
  src/operator/contrib/ctc_include/detail/hostdevice.h

Can you please let me know what are the guidelines for contrib directory.
Do all source files in the contrib
directory have to mandatorily have a license ?

In docs/ directory, the files that don't have a license are the .md, .html,
.js , .css, .svg.
I am assuming that these files don't need a license and thus we are good to
put them in rat excludes file.
Please let me know if my assumption is wrong.

The explanation for other items in rat excludes is available in the doc
maintained by Meghna:

Hi Hen,

Sorry I misunderstood. The doc can definitely be removed from release when
doing tar.gz build.
I for some reason was thinking about the release tag on github.

Re: [VOTE] Apache MXNet (incubating) 1.2.0 release RC2

2018-05-11 Thread Anirudh
Hi Justin,

We cannot just remove the documentation without modifying the original
repo, since it is a submodule.
I have opened an issue to googletest to see if it can be relicensed:
https://github.com/google/googletest/issues/1604
Is this acceptable for the release?

For issue 1 and 2, is the information being in README and API docs enough
or do we need to add a
warning for Creative commons license when script is launched ?

The information regarding the license is currently added both to the README
of the example for 1, and also on the docs for the API call for 2.
Are you suggesting that some kind of warning be provided during download of
these datasets?

The link (
https://github.com/google/googletest/blob/ec44c6c1675c25b9827aacd08c02433cccde7780/googlemock/docs/DevGuide.md
)
states the following at the bottom :

"This page is based on the Making GWT Better
 guide from the Google
Web Toolkit  project. Except as
otherwise noted , the
content of this page is licensed under the Creative Commons Attribution 2.5
License ."

At the top it states the following ::

"All Google Mock source and pre-built packages are provided under the New
BSD License ."

Since the CC-BY license states "except as otherwise noted", does this mean
that the CC-BY-2.5 license at the bottom is void ?

Re: [VOTE] Apache MXNet (incubating) 1.2.0 release RC2

2018-05-11 Thread Anirudh
Hi Justin,

I have a few questions on the category b issues that you raised:

1. example/nce-loss/README.md: This script doesn't ship with CC-BY-SA and
GFDL content by itself but downloads the dataset when user runs the script
example/nce-loss/get_text8.sh.

2. python/mxnet/gluon/contrib/data/text.py: Here the datasets WikiText2 and
WikiText103 with "Creative Commons Attribution-ShareAlike" are also
downloaded when calling API: mxnet.gluon.contrib.data.text.WikiText2 and
mxnet.gluon.contrib.data.text.WikiText103. It also appears in the mxnet
docs here which will help make end users aware about it:
https://mxnet.incubator.apache.org/api/python/gluon/contrib.html?highlight=wikitext2#mxnet.gluon.contrib.data.text.WikiText2

3. 3rdparty/googletest/googletest/docs/DevGuide.md: For this issue Meghna
raised this question on legal-discuss@
https://mail-archives.apache.org/mod_mbox/www-legal-discuss/201804.mbox/%3CCAMGgKDDEDkSo-dff_GxU19B7JKMpUz3w6bGTYDs3XbJzyKAOGg%40mail.gmail.com%3E

The problem is that this license is part of googletest submodule and thus
it is not easy for us to remove it without modifying the googletest repo
itself.
I have mentioned this issue in the known issues of the RELEASE.

For 1 and 2, Considering that the Creative Commons License files aren't
part of the release source itself but downloaded when user calls some
specific api or runs some script, would these be blocking issues ?
For 3, I have added it to known issues and I look forward to any other
suggestions you have related to this.

I would really appreciate any other advice or suggestions you have on how
to handle these issues.

Hi Justin,

Just to make sure I understand: Do you want us to review rat-excludes file
to make sure we are not omitting important ? We will check the rat-excludes
file.
Also, the huge number of files(when run without rat-excludes) is because of
the third party submodules for whom the licenses have been added to LICENSE.

Hi Justin,

Thanks a lot for the feedback!

I will take a look at license issues and also publish my key to the public
keyserver.

I am not able to reproduce the issue you mentioned with unknown licenses.
When I try to run apache rat on the downloaded source it says 0 unknown
licenses. Does the source you are looking at include build artifacts by
chance ?
