IMO Something more needs to be done here, at the very least I would expect to 
se a very large disclaimer that these are not releases for use of the general 
public and for internal development use only and are not Apache Releases.  A 
google search brings up that page and it is incorrectly titled "Apache MXNet 
Python Binary Distribution”. I see other download pages that just contain links 
and no information to what the files are.

It also needs to be clear what a user is installed from this install page [1] 
which I assume is using the above? The GitHub download page [2] is also 
confusing as it contains a mix of Apache and non-Apache releases.

Currently this page isn’t in line with Apache trademark policy.

Thanks for that.

I assume that mean you will two distribution on PyPI? Or is the intent to 
remove the other one?

I’m not aware of any other project that uses CUDU code.

Thanks,
