Model description

Hello! Thanks for this great work :)

Previously, I implemented mpnet-rs and found a related issue(feature request) #33

If there is no on-going work for the mpnet model, I want to refactor my mpnet-rs crate and add it to text-embeddings-inference.

Have a nice day :)

Open source status

• The model implementation is available
• The model weights are available

Provide useful links for the implementation

• mpnet-rs
• huggingface-mpnet implementation
• transformers model info

Hey,
Thanks for the awesome effort to add a new model! I'm also interested in using this model with TEI. Did you receive any follow-up from the maintainers?

[NewBornRustacean]

Hello! Thanks for your comment! I didn't get any follow up, but I'm just about to start to code.
It might take some time to refactor.
I'll open draft PR ASAP!

@NewBornRustacean Just wanted to know if you've made any progress on this?

[NewBornRustacean]

Oh sorry man...
I've been so busy with work lately that I haven't had a moment to spare. It's already been almost a month. I'm really sorry for keeping you waiting. I think I'll be able to get some work done either this weekend or next weekend.

Adding mpnet would be great if you have the bandwith.
