Hello Jim, It was great meeting you in FOSS backstage and thank for your offer to mentor the project. We discussed within the MXNet ppmc and would love to accept your offer to mentor our project.
Your vast experience in building open source projects and communities around it will be very helpful to grow our project and work towards graduation, we look forward to learning from you. To give you a brief background of MXNet: MXNet was a research project driven by PhD students from CMU, UW, NYU and professionals working in many other organizations under the DMLC umbrella. In mid 2016 some of the contributors joined Amazon and continued to contribute to MXNet. In Jan-2017 a proposal was made to Incubate at Apache, Amazon was supportive of this initiative and has been contributing in terms of code and documentation and also partnering with other organizations such as Nvidia and Intel to further advance MXNet. (request ppmc members to fix/fill in any details that I might have missed.) Welcome to MXNet!. Thanks, Naveen
