discuss moving to JSON schema 2020-12 (from draft-07)

[kbroch-rivosinc]

The latest stable json schema is 2020-12: https://json-schema.org/specification whereas draft-07 is 2 versions behind.

Here's release notes:

• https://json-schema.org/draft/2019-09/release-notes
• https://json-schema.org/draft/2020-12/release-notes

Yea, there are a few things out of 2019-09 in particular that would be nice. I picked draft07 because that is the version supported by the YAML extension in VSCode that gives you live feedback.

Is there a feature(s) from 2019/2020 that you are particularly interested in?

[kbroch-rivosinc]

Nothing specific, just looking at the new features in general and figured starting on the latest stable would be better. I did figure there might be some downstream SW that we wanted that wasn't compatible.

It looks like there's been some movement for that vscode extension:
