restrictions in jupyter_client and jupyter_server dependencies necessary ?

[nklever]

@brichet: Thanks for the 0.8.2 update!

The dependency part of pyproject.toml restricts jupyter_client<8 and jupyter_server<2. Is this necessary, because of jupyter v2 compatibility ?

Thanks, Nik

I haven't had time to do any further introspection on these restrictions, but the tests fail when updating each of the packages:

• Update dependency to jupyter-server>=2 #1718 fails on nbextension tests.
• Update jupyter-client requirement from <8 to <9 #1728 fails on python tests with a timeout. Probably one or more test are pending.

For jupyter_client>=8 and timeout tests, jupyter/nbconvert#1964 is relevant.

Edit: oops, I misunderstood what you meant. But the linked issue was going to be a problem anyway. It should be fixed now

The jupyter_server dependency issue breaks nbgrader when used with jupyter_server_terminals, which is needed for a lot of things. Hopefully this is fixed soon!

Closing as fixed by #1778 (released in 0.8.3) and #1684 (released in 0.9.0)
