Gluon-ts: Keep pandas 1.0 in version 0.7

[alexcombessie]

Description

My application has a hard dependency on pandas 1.0. I am thus a happy user of gluon-ts v0.6 😄

I have seen on the master branch that pandas has been updated to 1.1. Would it be possible to relax that requirement to keep pandas 1.0 along with pandas 1.1, i.e. use pandas>=1.0

Pandas 1.0 is barely one-year-old, IMO it's reasonable to wait a bit before forcing a switch to the 6-month old 1.1 release.

Hello Alex,

the requirement was changed in #1233. I'm not 100% why, maybe @lostella can shed some light here :)

Generally, gluon-ts should work with pandas==1.0 though.

@jaheba @alexcombessie looking at it again, I suppose that requirement bump was not really necessary.

@jaheba did you mean compatible with pandas~=1.0?

@jaheba did you mean compatible with pandas~=1.0?

What I meant is that gluon-ts should work if you install pandas==1.0.

We should change the dependency to pandas~=1.0 still :)

@alexcombessie Do you want to do the change?
