   > How do you arrive at the time estimates? Adding a `CC=gcc-7` statement in runtime-functions.sh shouldn't take you 2 days. It should take less than 30 minutes... I'm also a bit worried about a time estimate of 40 days for splitting `.cc` files into multiple files.
   
   Effort will certainly vary depending on who does the work, their familiarity, and how long it takes them to ramp up. If we get people familiar with the code it could be shorter. If we get people unfamiliar, 5/day seems reasonable. If its someone new to MXNet (and possibly not an expert in C++) it could take longer. 
   
   Until we get actual people to volunteer to do the work, and ask them how long they will need to do the work, we cant really give hard estimates. So these will have to do for now.
