Apologies for slowness on my part (busy home/work time of year). We have 23 committers with ICLAs/accounts.
Currently we only have 4 people on the PPMC (per https://whimsy.apache.org/roster/ppmc/mxnet). 14 are subscribed to the private list, so that suggests there is something else that needs changing. Will get that fixed (I've mailed general@incubator asking for assistance in how to fix). The next step is to move the source code to Apache. The change involves giving an Apache Infra member Owner permissions on github.com/dmlc, they will then do the transfer to github.com/apache, and then a name change of mxnet to apache-mxnet. Everything else should 'just work'. We'll then need to do some cleanup on licensing. The main change I then see happening is that releases need to follow the Apache rules. Releasing the Apache way is one of the primary items for a community to learn about while in Incubation. This document talks more about it: http://incubator.apache.org/guides/releasemanagement.html I would high-level summarize it as: 1) Must make a decision to release on the lists (i.e. a vote); and subsequently have the Incubator PMC approve on general@incubator (another vote). 2) Must be in source form, and obey Apache policies (for example third party library licensing). 3) Additional Incubator items around flagging to users that mxnet is in the Incubator. The biggest blocker, I believe, will be the zeromq licensing. There is acceptance to do releases with issues while in the Incubator, so that's something to raise on general@incubator. Who on the DMLC side should I put in contact with Apache Infrastructure to plan the source migration (i.e. who has Owner permissions on DMLC and can work with them)? Hen
