+1 non-binding One minor thing first: can you define PPMC in the doc? It's brought in without saying what it stands for. Even the link it goes to just talks about PMC and there's no mention of PMCC... so I'm not sure what the definition is. On Tue, Oct 30, 2018 at 8:07 AM Carin Meier wrote: > F

Hi Anton, I have the following suggestions for fixes to include in 1.3.1. These each have updates to files that will impact docs generation for the 1.3.x version of the website's Python API docs: https://github.com/apache/incubator-mxnet/pull/12879 https://github.com/apache/incubator-mxnet/pull/12

Hi Anirudh, Once the existing errors in docs building are cleaned up, I'm all for having CI bubble up a build break when docs are broken by a PR. That way we're keeping things up to date and not letting a minor bug turn into a serious issue for the entire API documentation. One break causes a ripp

I've been actively promoting moving examples to tutorials during reviews. That way they fall under the testing umbrella and get added to the website. Many times there's not really a great distinction as to why something is in the examples folder, other than it's like a graveyard of untested sample

Website and docs for 1.3.x branch is working fine. However... Two things to note that could be blockers: 1) The Scala API going out with the JavaAPI bundled inside it: /api/scala/docs/index.html#org.apache.mxnet.javaapi.package - this is fixed in master with #13071. 2) `make docs` doesn't work whe

pdate in mxdoc.py to get around the issue. For the next release, we could upgrade scala in the dependencies and provide a little better cross-platform support, but either way it shouldn't happen in v1.4 since it's already patched in master. Cheers, Aaron On Sat, Nov 17, 2018 at 1:05 PM Aar

I've been trying to diagnose issues with some of the CI pipelines and one blind spot in the reporting is in the stages - we'll have timing info on the first couple of parts and maybe the last part, but the lion's share is in one big part in the middle. It'll say 45 minutes, or jump to an hour, and

This is really great research. I've often wondered what the difference really is, and why it has to be so complicated.
