Research direction

Start at setup.py line 55, where the transformers upper bound is defined. Test the project with transformers 5.2.0 or newer, then remove the upper limit only if compatibility checks pass; done means the dependency installs and the relevant project tests succeed.

Description

In our environment we use mosaic streaming and hugging face transformers libraries.

In order to run latest qwen models I need transformers >= 5.2.0
https://github.com/huggingface/transformers/releases/tag/v5.2.0

However, mosaic requires transformers<5 here
https://github.com/mosaicml/streaming/blame/6a4e12f66ee64d28bd4c5b308cec7fd825222205/setup.py#L55

This was set 4 years ago but probably is not a strict requirement.

Could you do some testing with newer transformers version and if it works remove the upper limit on the transformers version?

Thank you!
