Re: Stop redistributing source code of 3rdparty dependencies to avoid licensing issues

I agree with Tianqi. We may change our build system, but this won't free us from the necessity to validate the licenses of our dependencies. The question at this point is whether we are allowed to differentiate between our main-source and hold it to the strict standards while treating the third pa

Re: Stop redistributing source code of 3rdparty dependencies to avoid licensing issues

I don't have an opinion, but would like to list pros and cons of doing so. The pro of doing so is that it indeed simplifies the release process, as these additional dependencies becomes category-B level dependencies as in https://www.apache.org/legal/resolved.html The con of doing so is that it b

Stop redistributing source code of 3rdparty dependencies to avoid licensing issues

Dear MXNet community, as per recent mail on gene...@incubator.apache.org [1] there are a number of licensing issues in MXNet 1.6rc1. Based on anecdotal evidence I believe there has been no release so far without any licensing issues, which is a blocker to MXNet graduating from it's incubating stat

Re: MXNet 1.6 as last release with Python 2 support?

If the lazy consensus passes, I believe the minimum Python version supported would be Python 3.5. Python 3.5 because it seems to be the minimum Python 3 version tested by our CI, specifically in the jobs running on Ubuntu 16.04. Best regards Leonard On Fri, 2020-01-17 at 17:36 +, Lausen, Leo

+1. It's interesting to see that you framed Python 2 and Python 3 as 2 languages. On Fri, Jan 17, 2020 at 12:43 PM Chaitanya Bapat wrote: > +1 > Taking the advantages into consideration, it makes sense to call off py2 > support from next release onwards. > > On Fri, Jan 17, 2020, 9:37 AM Lausen,

+1 Taking the advantages into consideration, it makes sense to call off py2 support from next release onwards. On Fri, Jan 17, 2020, 9:37 AM Lausen, Leonard wrote: > Dear MXNet community, > > as effective January 1, 2020, no new bug reports, fixes, or changes will > be made > to Python 2, and as

MXNet 1.6 as last release with Python 2 support?

Dear MXNet community, as effective January 1, 2020, no new bug reports, fixes, or changes will be made to Python 2, and as MXNet 1.6 will be released after January 1, 2020, I suggest to announce in the MXNet 1.6 release notes that MXNet 1.6 is the last release supporting Python 2. We have previou
