As an individual Relax contributor from UCSD, I don’t feel our community has created an environment that welcomes new contributors and new contributions.
I am happy to see different opinions in the discussion, but it's really shocking and disappointing that we are afraid of moving forward even with large amount of community support, and for such a technically strong optional module.😞 Based on several community members, Relax can solve the needs that they care about. It’s also made clear by @YuchenJin in the RFC that Relax is an optional module which does not disrupt the current TVM flow, and it does not have the intention to replace Relay. He explained in the section 6 that the three components are tightly coupled together, and explained the difficulties in simply updating Relay to bring all the benefits of Relax, but still got the same questions again and again. I am very surprised that such a module that can solve the current pain points of tvm has received so many questions about future migration plans—these are S1 and S2 stage questions, which shouldn’t be in the scope of this RFC. It's hard to imagine that everyone who wants to contribute to tvm, especially those who do foundational work like relax, needs to answer all of these questions and do future predictions about existing flow deprecation and timelines, which in my opinion discourages people from contributing. -- Reply to this email directly or view it on GitHub: https://github.com/apache/tvm-rfcs/pull/89#issuecomment-1267632697 You are receiving this because you are subscribed to this thread.
