Thanks, everyone for helpful feedbacks. I would like to clarify a few points being raised so far on behalf of the current TVM PMC.
> PMC vs PMC member Thanks for pointing it out. This is something we overlooked and will update the proposal to make the change accordingly. > Champion Markus has been actively engaging with the TVM community and helped the community start the incubation process. These efforts include: - Introduce the Apache way to in the TVM conference last Dec - https://sampl.cs.washington.edu/tvmconf/slides/Markus-Weimer-TVM-Apache.pdf - Help the community to start the incubation conversation(also Thanks to Sebastian and Gon) - https://github.com/dmlc/tvm/issues/2401 - Watch the pre-incubation private list, and give helpful feedback While we do not expect our mentor to actively watch the community on the daily basis(many of our committers only contribute a few days in a week), he has been very responsive and helped us to shape the incubation proposal and most importantly be a strong advocate of the Apache way. I personally think he is more than qualified as our champion:) > Hardware artifact INAL, however, given that Apache only releases source code and our source code is in the form of software source code (HLS C and we are moving to Chisel-(scala) ). Then anyone can take the software source code and generate unofficial hardware release.
