    Dear MXNet Community,

    Heres an update on the 1.8.0 release process:

    The vote on general@ has passed [1]. I have tagged the final release on github [2] and removed the rc tags. We're still working addressing a packaging issue with the pip wheels to make them ASF compliant (there is an issue with static linking Nvidia libraries). After [3] is completed we'll backport to 1.8.x branch and build the wheels through the CD and then publish to PyPI.

    Thanks,
    Sam

Re: [RESULTS] [VOTE] Release Apache MXNet (incubating) version 1.8.0.rc3

Posted by Sam Skalicky <sa...@apache.org>.
Dear MXNet Community,

Heres an update on the 1.8.0 release process:

The vote on general@ has passed [1]. I have tagged the final release on github [2] and removed the rc tags. We're still working addressing a packaging issue with the pip wheels to make them ASF compliant (there is an issue with static linking Nvidia libraries). After [3] is completed we'll backport to 1.8.x branch and build the wheels through the CD and then publish to PyPI.

Thanks,
Sam
