Thanks Justin! Docker Images and Downloads Stats
- These images are indeed only used for testing purposes. Note that there are more than 150 PRs every month, results in more than tens of thousands of tests being triggered. Every now and then the CI machine need to pull the fresh new image after the cache is cleared. So it is understandable that they have more than 4K Downloads - As a additional note. The image DOES NOT contain TVM in any form. It only contains the build env that makes it easy to build tvm. So even if someone want to download the Advertisement of Docker Page in the Docs - As you rightfully points out, the installation page advertises the docker page[1], however note that the majority of the docker page contains instructions to build the image from source, which is totally fine because source are 100% Apache compatible. - When docker image is referred in other place of the documents, they refers to the docker image build from the Apache source release[2]. - Base on the same rationale of priorizing Apache compatible branding over thirdparties, we always first mention how build from source first. - When reference to thirdparty image is mentioned, a clear disclaimer is being used indicating that they are not apache release. - [1] https://tvm.apache.org/docs/install/index.html - [2] https://tvm.apache.org/docs/install/docker.html On Fri, Aug 28, 2020 at 4:24 PM Justin Mclean <jus...@classsoftware.com> wrote: > Hi, > > On that installation pages it does says "We provide docker utility scripts > to help developers to setup development environment.
