Hi now. My fragments of time were spent fighting with numba, and I didn't have the energy to be thinking about dask.distributed. Numba should be in a better place right now. So I can set my build machine to trying to build it and seeing where we are with it right now. The most important thing about dask / dask.distributed is they really should be at about the same upstream version. I'm not 100% sure how to mark that in the d/control file. Also upstream might have some ability to do minor releases independently. But if we do a new upstream release of dask, it needs to be paired with a new upstream release of dask.distributed. And in my experience dask.distributed is the one that's harder to get to work right. Diane
