Hi dev, Here is an update for the 1.5.1 patch release.
1. Thanks for the effort from whole community, we have cherry picked a bunch of fixes to v1.5.x branch. So far, the branch looks healthy: http://jenkins.mxnet-ci.amazon-ml.com/blue/organizations/jenkins/NightlyTestsForBinaries/activity/ 2. https://github.com/apache/incubator-mxnet/pull/15803 cannot pass the CI; 3. I hope julia folks can take a look at the back porting for https://github.com/apache/incubator-mxnet/pull/15609 and https://github.com/apache/incubator-mxnet/pull/15608 - do we still need them? 4. License issue of cub and pybind is still not fixed. We also has a license issue of a cat image in julia examples. https://github.com/apache/incubator-mxnet/issues/15542 5. Still no progress for the sidebar issue: https://github.com/apache/incubator-mxnet/issues/15200 6. There is a GPU OOM issue in 1.5.0 release and already root caused by Lin: https://github.com/apache/incubator-mxnet/issues/15703#issuecomment-522780492. We need decide whether we want to get it fixed in the 1.5.1 patch release. Please find details in https://cwiki.apache.org/confluence/display/MXNET/1.5.1+Release+Plan+and+Status .
