Hi Qing The problem you are facing is while building opencv?
We would need to automate dependency download and building as well as part of an improved windows experience. Right now I only automated the build steps assuming you have a working opencv and openblas build. This would be the next step and if someone has cycles to contribute I would be happy to review and assist. To summarize, yes the final goal is to have a fully automated setup that requires one or at most a couple of commands / steps to get MXNet up and running from sources in windows. If anyone is interested in helping with this, let's coordinate here.
