Thank you Henri, Pedro. Yes, we are only referring to the one documentation file within google test. Henri, Could you please guide me on the best approach to take an issue to the legal-discuss@. Thanks, Meghna Baijal On Fri, Apr 6, 2018 at 7:42 AM, Pedro Larroy wrote: > Good point, I thought t

Hi All, Until we resolve the licensing issue regarding this file [1] after discussion on legal-discuss, there are a couple of ways to handle this file for the 1.2 release as follows - Option 1. Remove this one file [1] from the release src tar (though not from the Github mxnet repo). This might le

Hi Meghna, Until the discussion is complete on legal-discuss@, we can proceed with Option 2, and add this as a known issue to the release notes. Please let me know if you have any other suggestions or opinions. Anirudh On Thu, Apr 12, 2018 at 11:22 AM, Meghna Baijal wrote: > Hi All, > Until w
