JSON schema version documentation #627

Open hauntingEcho opened 6 years ago

so far as I can tell, Alpaca conforms to draft 3 of JSON Schema, which I am primarily assuming because of the way the 'required' property works. However, I haven't been able to find a target version mentioned in the documentation - is draft 3 the correct version? This would be very helpful README information.

Hi from the JSON Schema spec project. We're splitting our implementations page into a page for modern drafts (6+) and older drafts (4-), and dropping anything that does not support at least 4. Criteria for determining whether a non-validator (such as a UI form generator) is "compatible" with draft-06 or higher will be published on json-schema.org's implementations page.

I would be interested in hearing if this project is moving to any newer drafts. Based on this issue, I will assume it is only on draft-03 and will drop it from the active lists. Draft-03 is over 7 years old, and draft-04 was more widely implemented. But the first draft considered "modern" is draft-06.
