Yeah I saw that and decided I was overloaded and stopped doing
anything.

Historically it was pretty important to dask and dask.distributed to be
released together, upstream intends them to be matching versions, but I
didn't know how to set the the dependnecy version strings to require
that.

Yes very much yes. Is there a way to nag anyone trying to upload dask
to go check the harder to update distributed before uploading?

That all seems promising to me.

If you want to push what you've done I might have time sunday night/
