Re: [RFC] Separate style and phpBB versions in style.cfg

1. Any style or modification can break at the next minor version.
2. Support team only supports the latest version.

Until these policies are changed specifying a single compatible version seems at least sensible to me.

I guess that makes sense.

I like the idea, both JSON & the seperation of the style versions, although it shouldn't be a hard limit. Warning the user that the style is outdated should be enough.

I'll merge the change now anyway to resolve problems with the updater. I still think we should go the same route as with extensions, and make this the same composer.json format.
