hi all, quick dask q: it looks like the maximum allowed version is a bit behind latest, is there a reason for that or is it just an oversight? cf. https://github.com/PrefectHQ/prefect/pull/1181

no reason in particular - we are just being cautious and haven’t gotten a chance to test / review the changelog

it's not critical but I was a bit surprised by the maximum

requirements.txt

versions in general; it basically means that if I want to install prefect, I have to exactly follow all of its package versioning opinions. you can imagine that if all pypi packages did that then you'd pretty quickly reach a state where everything disagrees and you can't install anything 🙃

That’s fair; we’ve been bitten by major version changes many times already, so it’s something we like to monitor — we definitely make an effort to keep everything up-to-date, and might consider relaxing those upper bounds one day if it becomes an issue for users

that makes sense, it's definitely a tricky balance to strike. only last point is that (for me at least) tight dask integration is the main selling point of prefect, and I think heavy dask users might be especially interested in keeping dask up-to-date as compared to other dependencies

yup, that totally makes sense
