Hi Justin, I looked at the big directories that were omitted in the RAT excludes file: contrib/* and docs/*. In contrib/, I found a few files which don't have a license or have a license but not the full text: src/operator/contrib/psroi_pooling-inl.h src/operator/contrib/ctc_include/detail/cpu_ctc.h src/operator/contrib/ctc_include/detail/ctc_helper.h src/operator/contrib/ctc_include/detail/gpu_ctc.h src/operator/contrib/ctc_include/detail/gpu_ctc_kernels.h src/operator/contrib/ctc_include/detail/hostdevice.h
Can you please let me know what are the guidelines for contrib directory. Do all source files in the contrib directory have to mandatorily have a license ? In docs/ directory, the files that don't have a license are the .md, .html, .js , .css, .svg. I am assuming that these files don't need a license and thus we are good to put them in rat excludes file. Please let me know if my assumption is wrong. The explanation for other items in rat excludes is available in the doc maintained by Meghna: https://cwiki.apache.org/confluence/display/MXNET/MXNet+Source+Licenses Anirudh On Fri, May 11, 2018 at 6:10 PM, Anirudh <anirudh2...@gmail.com> wrote: > Hi Hen, > > Sorry I misunderstood.
