   > 1. if the building of the conda package fails, we need to delete the newly updated tag? Alternatively, we may need to consider a pre-release version like 3.0.0-alpha0.  Then, we need to parse the version ID with `-alphaX`.
   > 2. both the CMake and Conda building scripts need to parse the version from the git tag.
   > 3. The CI needs to monitor both the dev and master branch. Only when the tag of the master branch changes, it uploads the pacakges (and docker images?).
   
   Regarding 1, after comparing other framework, like tf. 
   - For `major` release, they have `alpha` and `beta`, then followed by `rc`, release candidate.
   - And for `minor`, pre release starts from `rc`. 
   - While `patch` will be released directly.
   
   For torch, similarily:
   - `major` starts from `alpha`, followed by `rc`
   - `minor` starts from `rc`
   - patch is released directly.
   
   By right, simply speaking, `alpha` is first phase of testing internally. `beta` is testing publicly. `rc` is almost like stable release unless serious bug is discovered.
